Gmail has slowed to a crawl and won't load and won't allow me to type a reply
In the last couple days Gmail has slowed to a crawl. It won't load, and barely does, and once it does I try to click on an email loads super slow and trying to type in a reply in one existent, had to switch over to google chrome to do my emails. What is going on? I have a new modem from ATT also. I cleared cache and cookies, restarted computer and still slow to a crawl

- How to clear the Firefox cache {web link}
If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?
While you are in safe mode;
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
How to disable Hardware Acceleration {web link}
I went through the cache clear and unchecked hardware box but still slow and even typing into this reply box is excruciating slow. Might be going back to Chrome.
Did you try Firefox Safe Mode?
