Running slow - INTERNET EXPLORE WORKS FINE - not comp prob!!
Everything is sloooooowwwww. Even keyboard. Just ran anti-virus and malware scans. INTERNET EXPLORER WORK ING FINE!! Therefore, I don't think it's my computer. Since switching to Firefox - I like it better. Would rather fix Firefox than switch back to Internet Explorer. Have been getting "scripts" messages occasionally - but this terrible slowness started suddenly 2 days ago.

First when posting
1) 32 bit or 64 bit? 2) Amount of pc memory and type ddr1, 2, 3 ? 3) Can you screen capture and post picture of Task Manager
As like picture I attached.
32 bit - 1.5GB 2.8GHz- cant capture task manager - ddr doesn't show on system info
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} While you are in safe mode;
Type about:preferences#advanced<Enter> in the address bar.
Under Advanced, Select General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.
Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?

I tried to relate this earlier through this posting system, but frankly it was confusing.
As long as it works. Safe Surfing.
Just as an update, after investigation of general hardware acceleration issues there is an update going out today that should resolve this. The new version will be 38.0.5 on beta June 2nd. Thank you for your patience, please do report back if there are any further issues.
(please note the update in this post for the change in release channel)
