I play Farmville on Facebook and on Zynga.com and since changing from IE to Firefox it has SLOWED the process of time between "clicks" so dramatically that my gaming has been affected to the point that I am considering going back to IE...I don't want to do this but cannot understand why I am having this problem with a product that says it is so much better than IE??

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== When I changed from IE to Firefox

Don't worry about it :)

Mozilla's knowledge base has a very comprehensive article about troublehsooting extensions and themes:

I hope it helps. It's very detailed, so if you got this far, you should have little problem following it. I'm "here" if you need further help.

Hello Dara.

You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

Hi Morbus -

I am such a "novice" at all computer stuff...I don't even know what "add-ons" are!! Everything scares me....LOL. I am so scared of forum & chat rooms because they are people offering suggestions verbally and I don't know what to "do"... I have better luck with tech support giving me a written step by step process to follow or working with someone over the telephone. It's all so discouraging! I appreciate your advice/help & then I think I become a "burden" to the people who do try to help....so if you choose not to continue I understand.

I LOVE FIREFOX, it was working perfectly for FRONTIERVILLE until I updated to 4.0 . Now the lag time is terrible and I am forced to use Safari, which I do not care for- PLEASE HELP.
