What has changed? It worked fine 2 weeks ago and was very fast. This happens in all of the mail folders: inbox, trash, etc. I switched to Thunderbird about 3 months ago and was very happy with it. Now I'm frustrated.

I can't really help with McAfee. Please check with them, or ask in a McAfee forum.

Thanks. I'm working on your solution. Where do I find this systray icon it suggests I right click on? I'm not a computer whiz...

I have followed the instructions and will monitor this the next few days. So far, I've noticed an improvement.

For those of you using McAfee as your virus protection: I followed the link above and since have had no issues. My Thunderbird is working fast and very well. Thanks for the help "christ1".
