The first answer to any problem is "see if it occurs with addons turned off."

What a pain in the ass to try to find the one...

Create a function where you can tell FF to try to open a specified web page, and FF will do it repeatedly, turning off on addon at a time, showing you a nice list of statistics like how long it took to connect, scripts that ran & how long, etc; whatever might help the user recognize something wrong.

If you are asking about the possibility of Mozilla creating an automated diagnostic routine to "tell FF to try to open a specified web page, and FF will do it repeatedly, turning off on addon at a time, showing you a nice list of statistics like how long it took to connect, scripts that ran & how long, etc; whatever might help the user recognize something wrong." this isn't the place to make that request.

Your message is not clear. Is the problem that Firefox is opening a window / pop-up? What is in it?

The best way to disable all add-ons is to Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

While you are in safe mode;

Type about:preferences in the address bar and press enter

Select Advanced > General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.

Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?

Then restart.
