Pages slow to load or do not load, then time out, sometimes stopping page from loading will reveal it or stopping and refreshing it, though not always.

pages will not always load or take forever, if i stop it from loading and refresh it it may load right away though not always. It is like the old days @ 33K, never used to happen, basically have all the same plugins have always had.

has been doing this for several months now, finally can't take it any more, all malware, virus, scans are clean, settings are the same for last ? years. do get script problems from time to time but not very often. loading say New egg, will take forever or will not completely load page, have backed up all bookmarks, etc: removed and reinstalled but no change. any Ideas would be of great help. I have been using Firefox, since it's inception and don't want to switch browsers.

Thank You,

Mark

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
