Mozilla Firefox loading Webpages abnormally slow.

I got Windows XP as my OS. Mozilla has started to "fail" at loading web pages and or takes forever to load them. My desktop is fast at all other things and my internet connection is fine taking into consideration I can play online games, download stuff(even though it takes forever to get to the page lol), etc etc. To get a desired web page to show up I have to keep refreshing the page. Often times it will go black white and the status bar will say: Done.


Any ideas?

Which version of Firefox are you using?

Disable all your addons temporarily, then restart Firefox. If this fixes it, re-enable the addons one at a time, restarting after each one until the problem comes back.

If you like using Firefox but aren't happy with the "slow" issues,. why not try "Cometbird 3.6" It's made by mozilla and the GUI look almost identical to firefox so you won't experience any learning curve. It's also quite lean without the bloat that Firefox seems to have packed on in recent times.
Cometbird is definitely a faster alternative to Firefox and I.E.
Check it out here:
