After updating to 6.0.2 firefox now takes a really long time to open a window after starting the program

Was prompted to update firefox. Did so, appeared to install correctly.

Now when I open firefox it takes over a minute to open a new window.

Common problem with other complaints under "stall", "freeze", and "hang". Try clicking the refresh button every 5 seconds until the page loads (usually second, third, or fourth try) instead of waiting.

Maybe it will be fixed in FF7. Mozilla is simply not addressing the problem.

that works and sucks.
