Fast computer problems

Problem is that I click on the FF icon in system tray and the FF window appears but the inside of it is all white for 2-3 seconds. Very annoying as it should be in memory and not have to load anything.


1. I leave FF open and minimized to tray, all day long when I am at work. 2. Yes I ave a bunch of addons and I don't think that any of them should be causing this issue. 3. Only happens after I haven't been on the computer for some time with FF open and minimized. 4. Thunder bird does the same thing, if that helps.

Parts of the computer will go to "sleep" if the user does not have it working.
