Hello, about a week ago, out of nowhere, Firefox began to load many webpages very slowly (not all, but many). Especially yahoo/google/gmail and the like.

I didn't do anything to cause that (no new add-ons). I refreshed/reset firefox, I even deleted it and reinstalled it. Nothing. It is still extremely slow when IE and Chrome load the same pages at the same time almost instantly on my extremely fast internet.

I'm about to give up on this browser if it keeps doing this.

Any other advice?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
