Slooooooowness- practically every time I'm online When Computer is 'sleeping' and I go to re-start. Will not connect to internet. Stalling is driving me crazy - as I can't get on with what I'm doing. Just installed Chrome - no problems ( except when I try to open Mozilla - then whole computer stalls)

Would like to stay with Mozilla - any guidance appreciated. I have Lenovo 510 idepad (new) Many thanks, Anita

Have you tried restarting Firefox after sleep?

Other users have reported that sleep is causing problems.

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).

Let the computer go to sleep. Later wake it up. Is the problem still there?
