Since update, various sites load very slowly and some do not load until "Reload Current Page" is clicked several times.

Since Firefox update (6.0.2) many sites load very slowly and some do not load at all (green circle rotates infinitely) until "Reload Current Page" is clicked on 2 to 12 times.

Returned to version 5. No more slow load.

Automatically re-updated me to 6.0.2 and now slow again.

Returned to FF 5 again and turned off automatic update.

Downloaded 7.0.1 and the problem seems to be solved.

Same here, only that updating to 7.0 or 7.0.1 doesn't seem to solve this issue. Seems to have something to do with loading images (e.g: adobe.com stops loading when "wwwimages.adobe.com" is being loaded. imdb.com, on the other hand, seems to load images very slowly and not all of them).

Safe-mode. disabling add-ons, clearing cache and cookies and checking for malware doesn't help.

Sorry you are still having slow loading problems. Since downloading 7.0.1 I've experienced none. Just tried adobe.com and imdb.com and they loaded with no delay. I have no suggestions. Tried all the cures for FF6 to no avail and went back to 5. Now am happy with 7 . . . so far.

same here, (7.0.1) in fact adobe.com is still trying to load in a background tab as I type. I also have trouble with a lot of Gawker sites as well.

i fixed this by making a new profile (not my idea). Have a look here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles

make sure you back up bookmarks, etc. and learn how to re-import them. All pages are loading fine for me now.

Since it seems that loading images may be hanging things up just had a thought, go to TOOLS. Then select OPTIONS. Under OPTIONS go to CONTENT and check Load Images Automatically. See if this helps.
