>>>>I have talked before about Firefox being super slow on my computer. I had 3.6 version; upgraded to 4.0.1, Still very slow. I removed NoScript; still very slow (NoScript was not causing the problem). Today I need to check something on the local RMV site; loaded it on FireFox. It keeps saying Loading.. bla. bla..bla. Meantime I opened IE 6.0 opened the page - almost immediately and not a problem. Returned back to Firefox; this hog was still trying. What a piece of crap. If not for that fact that I have tons of Bookmarks in FF I would have uninstalled it right now. But it is only a matter for time before FF will be a nightmare history in my memory.

I will wait with uninstalling and reinstalling. As far as AdBlock I use Google Toolbar and it has (as far as I know) the same functionality. I am going through all my add-ons, removing some, disabling some settings. Maybe I will hit on what is slowing down FF after all. Thank you.
