All functions in FF slow to respond
Firefox v 38.0.1 is installed. I have already uninstalled, reinstalled, and done a "Refresh" so I am running no add-ons. AVG is installed on the computer, but even when disabled, the same thing happens. When I launch Firefox, the window shows up in a normal amount of time, but the default start page comes up very slowly. Clicking into the address bar registers slowly. Typing in the address bar shows up slowly. The webpage begins to load slowly, and then pops up nearly all loaded. Then the non-flash image slider loads very slowly. Clicking the X registers in a normal amount of time, but then the "Confirm Close" dialog comes up slowly. Nothing ever hangs, it's just all very slow. I can launch IE, let the blank homepage load, click into the address bar, go to Yahoo, and let it fully load in 10 seconds. The same process in FF takes 47 seconds. Both CPU and memory utilization remain very low throughout the whole process, and no proxy servers are enabled. Any thoughts?
