The Gun Of Bavaria Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 So, when I open up my Mozilla Firefox on my laptop, it takes 5 freaking minutes before the browser actually appears on my screen. I've ran Spybot S&D, Windows Defender, & Windows Malicious Software removal, all in Safe Mode, and have found nothing. Any ideas WTF is going on? I do have my share of Add-Ons, could that be it? I let my McAfee go so I don't have any Virus Software per se, just the above programs. That said, does anyone know of any free: 1) Anti-Virus Online Scan/Software 2) Registry cleaner?

Fishooked Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I could be checking for updates for your add-ons, but other than that, I dont know...never had those kinds of problems with FF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECURB Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I could be checking for updates for your add-ons, but other than that, I dont know...never had those kinds of problems with FF. It does sound strange... I have about 10 add-ons... no problems... I would make sure you have the latest version... and then go to Tools>AddOns and make sure they are all up to date...

Fishooked Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Or if you're not 'married' to any of those add-ons, uninstall FireFox and reinstall it...then go back and redo the add-ons.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 And get some friggin' virus software. Avast is good. It's free and doesn't hog resources like Norton/McAfee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
