I open firefox and type in search bar. Because it is slow it will not even record each letter (skipping letters). When opening a web site it will partially load then the blue download ring appears and flashes for a second then disappears then flashed a couple of seconds the disappears again while the website does not load. It appeared to be a flashplayer issue so I down loaded the latest version recommended for firefox. I've even deleted firefox and reloaded it and then loaded the latest version of flashplayer with the same results. Please help - till this happened used firefox exclusively and really like it !
