I am guessing that you are using different Operating System User Accounts. For instance you and your wife possibly log-in with different User Names and Passwords, and could have many differences in some of the Operating System (Windows 7) preferences. see <-- MS link may have different language options --

Without further information it is difficult to offer advice, but try in safe mode and also look at basic troubleshooting and firefox hangs <-- KB articles links often in differing language locales options -- should default to match language of firefox browser.

You will have to try from each firefox Browser shortcut in turn, they will each use a differing profile which is one reason they may behave differently from as you put it each side.
