Slow?

Look at http://techreport.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=25988 and see if any of that applies.

Firefox is a nice web browser but in my case it causes system slowdowns whenever you try to display a web page with Macromedia Flash files and also it does take a while to get used to the "feel" of Firefox.

Besides, people who want Firefox-like functionality in Internet Explorer can download the powerful Maxthon shell program, which not only adds tabular browsing and a number of Firefox-like features but also adds quite flexible and powerful ad-blocking capabilities through the AD Hunter function. Why do I have this feeling that Microsoft may just buy out the rights to Maxthon soon?
