It's only with recent versions that I have noticed the problem of FF not 
responding. but usually if you wait long enough it eventually does. I 
suspect something has been changed with the way it loads webpages. 
also.. it you deleted FF and TB and the computer went faster that would 
prove it was those causing the problem. I don't see how they could make 
a computer slower tho when they're not running.
