Every Time I Go To Twitter Computer Freezes For 5 Minutes Straight: HELP!?!?
It not only freezes for Twitter, but random other sites as well. I've already tried using Firefox in Safe Mode, refreshing, and every imaginable thing to see if it was my computer's issue like malware/virus scans, high pc usage, etc. I've never in 10 years had so many issues with Firefox. Just bought a brand new laptop and no problems on that. Any guesses?

Thanks! This seems to fix most of the issues. The computer still freezes up a little, but no where near the amount that it used to freeze.
