When I open Firefox, it freezes! I cannot select anything or type in anything! When I look at Task Manager, FIREFOX Memory Usage is sometimes up over 200,000k-300,000k. I have to wait long minutes, even longer before I can even type or select my bookmarks. Sometime I have to kill the process and just quit. This just started several days ago!

Try changing your firefox start page to "show a blank page" (in Options). And try NOT clicking the "Home" button on the toolbar.

If that works, then you have the same "about:home" problem as some of the rest of us.
