Initially it runs pretty fast. And then loading sites becomes slower and slower. If I drop out of FF to my computer main page and then try to get to myFF homepage, the computer tells me that I am already running one FF that has become unresponsive......yet, checking on the processes site (crtl/alt/delete) nothing shows up as "running. So, I have to totally restart and then the whole thing starts all over again. 'Grinding halt' was a set of words used on the help page. Absolutely!
