when using fireox the pages load inconsistently with graphics and lock up with blue whirling circle frequently.

Document preview in GMAIL no longer functions with any attachment. ONLY downloading works...

Other browsers, Opera, Safari, IE work fine in comparison to Firefox when run at the same time on the same laptop??

thanks: perhaps try the following: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named accessibility.force_disabled. double-click it, change its value to 1 and restart firefox once. if you're looking for increased performance the current firefox quantum release will offer more speed and smoother browsing as well.

have you already looked if some settings you toggled through the quickjava extension might have an impact on document preview in gmail?

Hi, many thank for your assistance. 

I have changed the value and il monitor the performance.

The quick java button has been toggled previously as well as restarting etc, which had no effect.

I will review and let you know. Cheers
