It takes 40 seconds to start firefox. Would it be faster? How?

before the opening of firefox it takes 40 seconds. What could be the problem or is the normal time to open?

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.

  • Why Firefox takes so long to start?

    When I start Firefox takes a good 1 + minute (s) to load the home page or any other page that I try to type to the top. I thought he was one of two things: Firefox itself, or Flash, that has problems loading games and initialization when I try to uninstall and reinstall the regular way. Account of my brother on this computer is not having one of these problems. I've done everything both Mozilla and Adobe says with Firefox and Flash, but nothing helps.

  • When you start firefox, a second tab loads, it seems that I have it configured to load only 1 homepage.

    for a couple of years, through different versions of firefox, I had a problem of a Chinese web page opens a second tab at the start of ff. I have repeatedly reset the start page in the options settings. I tried to search for the computer names of the web page that is offending to try to find where the file can reside, no chance.
    The opening sequence is as follows
    start of Firefox
    charge of the tab of the desired homepage.
    behind the window of firefox, I see a screen flash, it seems to be a DOS window that opens and closes instantly.
    the offending tab loading, (so now there are 2 tabs) and load the Web page.

    the second page of the tab is a Chinese web site (ip 142.4.108.73), it's the final investigation period to show.
    analysis of computer viruses, robots never find or clean the problem

    See the following for a few suggestions:

    If you don't keep changes after a reboot then see:

  • My site optimized (22-59K) uses a grid for layout system. It takes 10 + seconds in Firefox 7,8,9 to load, other browsers need less than 1 second. Y at - it other that to use a 2-column layout, some recommended grid with which Firefox gets along?

    Someone commented ago about 9 weeks for my site to load very slowly. I tried and had no problem.

    But a few days ago, I realized that the first call (after rebooting the system) in Firefox 7, 8 and 9 of Firefox Firefox takes 10 + seconds (white screen) while other browsers have need of about 1 second. After the initial call each page loads faster than in other browsers.

    Without content management system, I got the same results. In simply removing things from the grid of my stylesheet, pages loading less than a second. I tried other grids http://cssgrid.net/, http://www.webdesignerwall.com/demo/simpler-grid/940grid.html , but had the same number.

    A identify the extension that is causing the problem in your case?

    He is always unpredictable, how the extensions behave with a new version and in case of problems you can contact the developer of the extension to inform him about the problems.

    Hi, I do not know where to turn: the person who takes care of all the stuff of count is out of town, this friend started Firefox and there was a message about an update, I thoght I again just click on install and wait to re start Firefox. But what I remember is this another open window and asked me to choose 'something' (an icon or banner or?), I thought I have to click on an element (I guess I should read all clearly). Firefox updated to 3.6.4, but it also inserted some sort of what might be called a banner? But it does cover only partially the half right of my 3 toolbars at the top of the Firefox window. It cannot be used to something else because it's just a mess of colors and unknowns, except for what looks like a 'top' and what I recognize as an icon of Firefox (but only partially visible)! Now, what he does, it's partly hide this part all the toolbars and they are difficult to read and to do to turn this 'thing' impossible to understand, if I keep to? I can't find in any case to remove it or use it? But since the icon of Firefox is about it, I think you need to know what it is and how trash. I'm sorry for this accident caused my my inattention, but I'm not much of a computer person - HELP! Thanks for any help. Judi

  • I have an iMac at the beginning of 2009, which takes 5 minutes. to start. I did google and firefox as well as and VPN are the only things open. How can I speed it up?

    How can I speed it up?

    First start by going to system-> startup disk preferences and select your startup disk.  Sometimes after an update OS X startup disk becomes unselected for the firmware needs to address each possible boot device, including USB, SD card, DVD, network, etc... and wait before Timeout interface moves the next possible candidate.

    After that, start in safe mode

    Hello, this sounds like it is probably caused by an add-on. you have any extension/theme installed, you can connect the "FFB"? Otherwise try to disable everything in firefox > addons > extensions & re-enable one by one to see which one might be causing the error message.

  • T450s startup takes 35 seconds before displaying the splash screen. (wake up 11sec)

    The following are my problems:

    1. when starting the machine, it takes about 35 seconds before the first activity screen (screen of Lenovo). After that, it starts normal.
    2. when waking off mode 'sleep', it takes 11 seconds before I see directed power stop to 'breathe' and wake up the screen.

    It feels like it is a hardware/bios on the issue, as (so far I know) hdd/ssd is accessible only after the bios has loaded and completed its audits of material. When you paste into a bootable usb it starts only flicker after the bios was loaded on the screen.

    Question:
    Anyone have an idea why my laptop waiting so long to start or wake? I don't mind wait a bit, but in 35 seconds + startup time normal is really boring. Especially with the fact that the laptop shows no sign of life for 35 seconds after ignition briefly the backlight on the keyboard. Alarm delay is also very annoying since even my 7 year old laptop BSOD to wake up faster, and I use a lot "sleep" mode.

    Some origins I think about:
    -Verification of the material during the initial start-up of equipment does not yet recognize a dedicated GPU card. (POST: Power On Self Test)
    -I don't think it's a problem with my software because the problems occurs before any media playback.

    I already tried things:
    -Reset the bios.
    -Start in legacy mode.
    -Update the bios
    -rebuild MBR (although I think that's the problem.)
    (- Refreshing installation of windows, even if I do not expect that's the problem.)

    This problem was already at the beginning (with origenal material):
    From the first time I started the laptop (with HARD drive), I noticed that it took a long time to start. I remember repeatedly pressing the button ON / OFF and think I did something wrong, when all of a sudden the 'Lenovo' screen appears.

    I hope someone can help me!

    My problems were solved!

    An engineer contacted me that they received a mainboard replacement and they wanted to make an appointment. I gave them the address where I worked the next day because I'm very mobile, and an engineer came by the next day. It appeared to be a qualified IBM engineer and test my machine and came to the same conclusion as me. He then did some tests to see if the problem was caused by something else, then the motherboard but eventually replace my motherboard with good care.

    After the replacement of the startup time and wake up was normal as it should be. I'm very happy with the service that Lenovo ThinkPad gave me.

    I have to add that when I called for the support that I got someone on the line who couldn't really understand me, neighter, Dutch or English. But it was also duo a bad connection, it seemed to me... But after that call I really didn't expect that it would come to a good end. I then really suppriced isn't 5 days later a Dutch engineer Chief called me for an appointment.
