Firefox is really slow to open the first tab, after that I can open as many tabs as I want to instantly. Why won't the first tab open instantly?
Tried to reinstall firefox, no anti-virus program, updating, actually I have no program, no plugins, no extension. Firefox has added to the windows firewall that is allowed to pass from the list (which I never did with my vista machine) computer brand new i5 quad core 3.6 khz with windows 8.1 all drivers are up to date. He did take 2 weeks to get 8.1 windows finally installed without locking up and having to reinstall for the 15th time by disabling all Microsoft built in spyware. She was semi stable for 2 days now. When I install kaspersky AV, it adds another couple minutes to launch firefox.
I was really excited about my new suppose to be faster computer but my 10 year old Q6600 2.4khz with vista is way faster and easier to use. I know I can't be the only one in the world to have this problem. I've been all over the internet and I see all the problems people are having with windows 8.1. I've got invitation to upgrade to windows 10 but that just locks up the computer again. Someone, anyone please HELP!
Solved it myself I think. The computer crashed again, so I took it back to return or repair. It turns out that the motherboard Asus has had an intermittent short circuit. Now, firefox opens perhaps a fraction of a second faster than my vista machine. Beautiful, I touch wood. Thanks to Fred for the answer to my problem. Good luck to all and good hike!

7 Firefox is very slow to opening pages as compared Web o firefox6
Compared to firefox6, this version, ff ver # 7.0.1 is very slow to open Web pages. It takes a long time to display the Web page. I tried to disable add ons and did everything I could, but it seems that there is a no solution.
One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.
Delete all rules for Firefox in the list of permissions in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

Hello
Last month, I got a strange problem with my Firefox browser in certain situations. The question is only apparent when executing some 3D games (most often when I run Diablo III). Each time these games is loaded my Firefox browser works incredibly slow. This isn't a question of a connection problem or such, the loading speed is very good, but the actual clicks, bookmark clicks, entered keyboard etc take a few seconds to register.
I tried Firefox running in failsafe mode which immediately makes the problem disappears. However, whenever I run it in normal mode the problem will be even if I disable all plugin and simple addon. I also tried to reinstall firefox and my addons and flash player times, the problem remains.
For what it's worth, another browser, I installed is not the problem at all (despite the same some addons installed - I only have 3 of them).
Someone has an idea what could be the problem? Is the failsafe mode inactivate the other thing the addons and plugins listed in the addon section?
Thanks in advance

I'm afraid that the update process will not reinstall my Kaspersky internet security files when the update is complete. I have Kaspersky asked this same question, but has not received a satisfactory response. I use Kaspersky Internet Security 2013 on a Windows Vista operating system.
Kaspersky is not known for updates in time of their Firefox Add - ons.
Sorry, but you try to put reality upside down. Kaspersky, as other developers, is a business that relies on profits. Firefox really nobody with her two weeks or so updates. Who they think they are? How in the world can you ask the company to keep track of Firefox way too often updates which are the result of a community of nerdy and unorganized?
I, like many other FF users I know personally, so close to change my standard browser due to this annoying problem. People like you are a danger to projects such as Firefox.
Your behavior and thought won't fly. Get real, dude!

the browser is started loading the home page to the top. But if I ask to go to a web page, it shows that demand is seeking my request in the new tab, but it's just sitting there. If I go to the HTTP address bar and press ENTER again I usually get the info right away
I loved Firefox, but 8.0 is an abomination when loading. Half the time, a blank screen appears. Pages on amazon and newegg among others to stall out.
No problems with IE8 on the same sites. I've downgraded to FF 7.0.1 and same problem.
I just went back to 3.6.8. Guess what - no problem. Someone has messed with Firefox after 3.6.8. If you can't fix the problems and may have security with 3.6.8 problems so that we may have to go back to IE (shudder). As it is, Firefox 8.0.1 is not feasible and is toast for me until fixed.

Re: My laptop is really slow in opening Web sites
It took about 20 seconds for this forum page to open.
I did the button Delete browsing history, but this did not improve it.I agree with Karl. I noticed the same thing a few days ago. It was probably a technical problem on the server. Now it works well again.

Recently I can't print from Firefox after that update - can print from all the rest.
Cannot print from Firefox. Thougth, first of all, it was a printer problem, but could print from other programs. Then tried printing from IE, and there is no problem. I think that this is related to the most recent update/upgrade.
This has happened
Each time Firefox opened
== I think it started after the most recent update/upgrade.

Hello
I use V14.0.1
I had simliar problems both at home and at work while using Firefox. IE and chrome works very well in these two places.
While I am at home, and not using any proxy, it worked after disbaling spdy i.e. network.http.spdy.enabled set to false.
However, when I'm at work (by browsing through a proxy, Ironport in this case) and it does not work. I noticed that it is not only the keyword google search or google sites, but none of the https / ssl working site. He invites me repeatedly for authentication of the proxy, and even if I type my proxy username and password, it does not work.
I have been with older versions of firefox for a while and have not had this kind of problem before.
Any idea?
