I first noticed that I was having trouble viewing videos on Firefox, but was able to correct that problem by doing something with Flash, if I recall correctly. Now I can view videos, but they are slow and choppy. When I check download speed using Firefox, it is 391 kbps (upload speed is 362 kbps). However, when I check download speed using Opera, it is 3161 kbps (upload speed is 367 kbps). Also, when I watch videos on Opera, of course, they are not choppy. I really want to continue using Firefox as my web browser. How can I make get the download speed back to normal?

Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?

Make sure that it isn't restricting Firefox in any way (we've sen Norton NIS software mentioned to cause issues like this).

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
