It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or it could be Hardware Acceleration. How to disable Hardware Acceleration {web link}
Is this about Firefox Troubleshoot Mode or about booting Windows in Safe Mose ?
Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support to see if that has effect.
In safe mode its very fast - in the working environment this is the only slow browser. How do I narrow down the conflict ? OR re-install without any previous settings or book marks ?? This just happened one day about 2 months ago
What addons do you have?

Did you mean Firefox Safe Mode?

Type about:addons<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)
In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select Extensions. Disable a few add-ons, then Restart Firefox.
Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All Of them.
If the problem continues, disable some more (restarting FF). Continue until the problem is gone. After, you know what group is causing the issue. Re-enable the last group ONE AT A TIME (restarting FF) until the problem returns.
Once you think you found the problem, disable that and re-enable all the others, then restart again. Let us know who the suspect is, detective.
