Several days ago an update was pushed and after this both my PC and my laptop (at different locations) load and open everything on firefox very slow. Sometime they lock up and I have to wait several minutes before anything happens Everything else on both computers works like it always has and internet speed is good and both locations, over 200m This problem happen on both systems as soon as the update was loaded. Has anyone had this problem? Thanks! Bob

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support to see if that has effect in case security software is causing problems.

It is possible that your firewall or other security software blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox application. Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
