Hi, When i start my Firefox in the morning for first time on the network that has proxy with authentication , the UI hangs by just clicking on the Firefox UI and after 15 to 20 min it became available to me to open any web site. Same when open Firefox using simple network or no proxy network it is working fine.

So it only lags on network authentication through a proxy? Have you checked "Do not prompt for password if stored" in that same menu.
