Hi melvinxx1, does this problem occur only during cold (first) start of Firefox or does it happen every time you request your home page? Are all the plugins up to date? http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ Does this problem occur in safe-mode? In order to start FF in safe-mode hold shift during the start. Regards, jm

Can you attach a screenshot? *http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-do-i-create-screenshot-my-problem Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot. Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br /> If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br /> You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.<br /> *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen ---- Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes). *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window. *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox. *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
