ALL OF A SUDDEN I CAN'T LOAD THUNDERBIRD. IT IS TRYING TO LOAD, BUT IT IS SO SLOW THAT IT CAN'T AND TIES/LOCKS UP MY MACHINE. I HAVE AN XP MACHINE.

I JUST DOWNLOADED AND UPDATE, AND IT MAY ASSUME I'M USING A NEWER OPERATING SYSTEM THAN XP. I TRIED TO DOWN LOAD AND REINSTALL THUNDERBIRD, BUT IT WOULDN'T DO IT, RAN UNBELIEVABLY SLOW (TRIED ALL NIGHT AND NO DOWNLOAD). I THINK I MAY NEED TO DOWNLOAD AN OLDER VERSION TO RUN ON XP. WOULD THAT FIX IT?

Still In Windows safe mode, start thunderbird in safe mode - https://support.mozilla.org/kb/safe-mode-thunderbird

i was able to open thunderbird, but i wasn't connected to the modem and couldn't send or receive emails. i closed and restarted normally but thunderbird still locked up everything and didn't open, same problem as before.
