I use the fox too, a similar thing happens to me. When I load multiple threads it gets really slow, sometimes it takes 30-40 seconds to respond to the next tab, or to even close a tab.

I started to load nightly builds on some advice I got from a thread I opened here, and the problem has lessened a lot since doing that. I don't know how to make firefox display what build I'm currently using. When I do Help...About... I get Ver. 0.8.0+ which isn't what I'm looking for.

I think the build might be in this string:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a) Gecko/20040416 Firefox/0.8.0+

That bit after the Gecko/####### but I'm not sure.
I'd ask SecretMethod70, he's a good resource for Firefox info. Search his Firefox threads for a whole lot of info.


You could try to use another build and see what happens for you.
