Firefox has gotten extremely slow. Typing, loading, searching, even just scrolling from the top of a page to the bottom. My daughter had the same thing happen to her and had to get her computer stripped down and completely reloaded. I don't have that option. It has no viruses and has been completely freed of all things that could slow it down.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== About a month ago. It is getting worse.

Hmm... try downloading the latest version... but if that doesn't work then try Safe Mode. Not sure what could be causing it...

I found a really easy solution to this problem. Download and install Chrome and use it for a browser instead. There are way to many problems with the latest versions of FF
