Firefox locking when starting

Sup guys?

I've been using FF without problems for years.

Yesterday, suddenly, whenever I execute Firefox, it locks for about 10-15 seconds.

(get a "not responding" prompt in file manager)

It all started yesterday when Firefox 22 was installed, (well, AROUND that time) and now it locks each time I start it.

It releases itself after about 15 seconds.

I've tried uninstalling it, reinstalling it, removing all plugins, and I'm just about going insane.

Any advice?

Thanks

PS: I'm using Windows 8 64 bit.

Plugins I use: noscript, lastpass, adblockplus

I have a massively fast system, so resources are not a problem...

It was lastpass indeed, evidently a problem with the binary.
