For about the last month I have seen my Firefox browser get very slow. I also see for a brief time, a message at the top that says "Firefox not responding" when I access a web site. This message at the top of my screen window only lasts for a short time, and then disappears. I would appreciate any help and suggestions that may help my problem. Thank you.

john99, thank you for your reply. I'm sure you know much more than I, but I tend to think your right when you make the comment "As a general rule if all browsers are slow the problem is likely one with Windows. Possibly even a malware issue. To rule out a malware issue follow the suggestions in this article".

I will take your advice and try those suggestions, both of them (Windows), that you recommended. I'm pretty sure I did do a malware check already, but will do one again. I will get back to you after trying them. Please be patient with my responses John, as it takes a while for me to determine if in fact something actually works in a factual way. Again, thank you for your help and patience.
