Why is internet slow with Firefox

Hello. My internet with firefox is 1 / 20:th of what it should be. I reinstall Firefox with the same speed as the result. Last uppdate two days ago, I, got the speed back to normal for a day, then back to slow speed?
My internet speed is what is should be when I use explore if this isn't my internet or hardware that serves as the upp. I use F-secure, but can't find any bad software. I have a laptop with Firefox and there, the speed is correct. I try to compare my laptop vs desktop settings in Firefox without any result. I don't know how long it was, but I guess it when I uppdated Adobe Flashplayer sometime. But I don't think that my speed is just when I use Explorer and when im games online.

First of all, try resetting Firefox. Refresh Firefox – reset settings and Add-ons. This simple step will eliminate the many problems in Firefox with just one click.

Then, if Firefox is still slow, try to reconfigure your security/firewall software that you may need to allow Firefox. These (F0secure in particular) seem to cause this question often.

  • Why my internet slow down to one analysis when it should be faster?

    I have 12 mb internet but im only get around 3 mb down load speed... why?

    Could be one of many things:

    1. what type of connection do you have?

    If the optical fiber, you should get the max of the link more closely, but with ADSL (supplied on a pair of copper wires), it can vary enormously according to the length of the line. For example, I tried "up to 24 M" on a pair of copper, but due to a very long line of the Exchange, I had only actually about 6 M.

    So what type of internet connection you have? And if his livery on standard cables, how long your line is?

    2. its possible, it's a malware problem, but if there are no other symptoms, unlikely. However, it doesn't take long to download, install, update (updated by right-clicking on its icon and 'run as administrator' then go to the update tab) and run a scan with Malwarebytes free to check. It don't take long and it's free.

    3. you can do a speedtest here http://www.speedtest.net/ try speedtests running throughout the day at different times (and if possible during the night) for a few days. This verifies that the D/L speed is several times. The other speed probem is the congestion on the internet or your local connection (not yours but your access provider) PSI can also 'Butterfly' test traffic and running in peak and off peak periods should show if it happens. In this case, contact your provider. that is, if during the day 9-11 and 14:00 - 17:00 say you get 3 m, but during the night between 22:30 and 04:30, you get 9 M, then its likely to be congestion.

    4. If you think that your PC is at fault, you can then ask a friend to upgrade their PC around temp connect via your boradband and run a speedtest to see what brings?

  • I realize ads on most screens that I have not called when internet browsing with FireFox. .

    I think this may have infected my browser when I was looking for a substitute for a PDF program offered by Adobe. I got a free program called PDF Creator. This I think is the culprit, but I don't know about you. Please, I don't know that he is responsible, but certainly timely. I have to say that I tried to remove this program but have had no success. Any ideas on how I can get rid of this naughty or whatever it is that is causing the problem?

    Hello, you have an extension named "SaveByclick" installed, that sounds rather suspicious - go to firefox > addons > extensions and remove it.

    also run a full scan of your system with the security software you have in place and various other tools such as the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

  • Why my PC slow down after loading of Norton Internet security 2012

    Windows Search

    Why my PC slow down after loading of Norton Internet security 2012

    Because Norton is a Devourer of resources. I would say deleting and using a user-friendly program over Windows.
     
    Norton and McAfee are the two least friendly Windows security and swine resource to start programs. My ISP offers the McAfee security suite for free and I refuse to use it.
     
    I used to use Avast in conjunction with Windows Defender, (still a decent option), but since MSE became of age, I have used which. MSE is an anti-virus, Anti-Spyware and Anti-Malware program all in one. IMO, it is a program MS got it wrong. And all of these options are freeware.
     
    If you choose to give it a try, download and save the MSE. Remove Norton and install MSE.

  • PDF. JS is no longer compatible with Firefox 35 and more. Why is it not be deleted?

    Noticed that PDF Viewer PDF. JS is not compatible with Firefox version 35 and more.
    Then why not delete it?
    Wine

    Since you have already installed, why not just update?

    For what is 'user' vs 'Developer', like the other reviewer mentioned, pdf.js is already integrated into Firefox for quite some time now and is enabled by default. There is nothing that needs to be installed unless you want to keep testing the 'extension' version which updates with new features and fixes more frequently than update of 6 calendar weeks for versions of Firefox. If this is the case, just update.

    https://github.com/Mozilla/PDF.js
    Scroll to the getting started > browser Extensions, Firefox-> development Version = click on it - then 'Allow' the hanging door that appears below the address bar on the left side.

    I saw your answer 2nd straight - on PDF. JS modules Web site. I don't see that what listed there more. I have no idea if or why it was deleted, but it will always update this area for users who have already installed. If someone else wants the extension, I guess they will have to get it from GitHub. I can only speculate that, overall, it is sufficiently developed by now that Mozilla doesn't have users more to test the advanced version and code that comes in Firefox works well enough.
