Since upgrading to the latest version of firefox I keep getting a yellow tab that says there is no internet connection. I click and it says to check status. It says I am connected the modem is next to my desktop and all status led's are on showing no problem. Also response time when loading emails and deleting them is slow. I experience no problems when I use google chrome and pages load very quickly and it never says there is no internet connection. The version is 57.0 Quantum. It says it is faster but actually it is slower than the previous version.

Please update your AMD Radeon HD 5450 driverDate: 8-3-2015 https://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/legacy?product=legacy3&os=Windows%2010%20-%2064 Try the Crimson Edition. ( use that).

So that is 2 separate issues then , Firefox is slow : Please : Go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Help ? --> Troubleshooting Information Page and take a look in the Accessibility section if accessibility is set to "true" there. if yes, go to the Firefox 3 Bar Menu --> Options --> Privacy & Security panel and under Permissions check the setting to Prevent Accessibility Services from accessing your browser.
