Hi, Can't even describe it well, but what's happening is that every time I access a search result from Google search or any other, once the Firefox screen appears, there is a "skip", from the edge of the bar on the to the final results on the screen. It's like there is a pause rendering or writing the screen--very annoying. Please advise.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to. You may also lose any settings for that website.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?

While you are in safe mode;

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
