Answer 1

check your computer has some spyware. If not then clear temp files.

Answer 2

it could be updating or your computer cannot support the software. Go to task managaer (ctrl+alt+del) to check to see how Firefox.exe is doing on the process tab.

Answer 3

delete firefox and go download the new version of it off of www.mozilla.com.

that should fix the problem if it doesn't then it could be something else besides firefox.

Answer 4

you should prolly reload it a couple diffrent times. and if that doesn't work delete all your private data. and if that doesn't work you will prolly have to re install it. this has happened to me many times

Answer 5

you could try downloading Google web accelerator, also if you are using a beta version of firefox you could update, also if you have firefox 3 you should downgrade to firefox 2 for about the next few months before firefox 3 is perfected you can download the latest firefox 2 here:http://www.filehippo.com/download_firefo...

Answer 9

Let's start with plugins, run it in safe mode and see if it starts faster.  If it does than go back and add the plugins one at a time.

If this still does this,  without plugins, than you will need to uninstall and reinstal it.

Does IE give you this problem also?  If not than the problem lies with firefox.  If IE does the same thing, than it is time to run a system check for malware
