After updating firefox today to 6.0, firefox is unable to load multiple tabs at the same time. When I try, firefox refuses to load any pages, and instead is stuck trying to connect to each page.
After I updated firefox to 6.0 today firefox has developed a problem loading multiple tabs. When I try to load 10+ tabs, either at the same time or by opening each tab separately, each tab is stuck trying to connect to the desired page. This continues if I close all the tabs and try to load a single page, the single page is unable to get pass connecting. In order to load a new page when this situation arises I must close down firefox and start again, and the program has no history of the previous session.

Thanks for the suggestions, unfortunately they didn't help. I don't have problems when its just a few tabs, I have 3 open right now, for example, and everything is working fine. The problem is when I have 10 or more open

This hasn't worked either. This started happening when I downloaded 6.0, before I downloaded it, everything was working fine. I even tried deleting firefox and reloading it onto my computer. That didn't work either.
My firewall program isn't on the list, but I have had a look at it, and it doesn't seem to be the problem
