When using gmail through firefox when I click on Attach file and then select a file it takes a very long time for the file to actually get attached so that I can send the email.

Is this a problem with the Adobe plug-in? A firefox problem? Please help!

Maybe your anti-virus software is scanning the file before allowing the upload.

cor-el, thanks for responding. I'm not sure that is the issue. In working with my system since the post i I have encountered this same problem when I open a file using the Adobe Acrobat. I'm thinking this is a plug-in issue but not sure where to start to try to track it down. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
