Firefox recently upgraded itself to version 31.3.0 on one of my computers. Now the circle by the "inbox" just spins....it's been more than 24 hours.
I tried all the suggestions for fixing slow or non responding on the support pages. Restarting, etc. no luck

This is the Thunderbird support forum. It might help if you listed what webmail service you are using with Firefox, however.
I use network solutions. webmail works.
To diagnose problems with Thunderbird, try one of the following:
- Restart Thunderbird with add-ons disabled (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled". If Thunderbird works like normal, there is an Add-on or Theme interfering with normal operations. You will need to re-enable add-ons one at a time until you locate the offender.
- Restart the operating system in safe mode with Networking. This loads only the very basics needed to start your computer while enabling an Internet connection. Click on your operating system for instructions on how to start in safe mode: Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, OSX
- If safe mode for the operating system fixes the issue, there's other software in your computer that's causing problems. Possibilities include but not limited to: AV scanning, virus/malware, background downloads such as program updates.
