Microsoft security essantials (real time protection) dramatically slow down startup off your browser in comparison with IE !!! After turning it off this feature everything is Ok. Windows 7 ultimate sp1. Is it microsoft policy ?

MS Security Essentials shouldn't slow down Firefox or its start time at all. Make sure you add the Firefox path to your exclusions list so it won't scan.

  • C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla/Firefox for 64 bit systems
  • C:/Program Files/Mozilla/Firefox for 32 bit systems
