Withing the past 2-3 months FireFox is getting sluggish...and it's getting worse. I don't make changes to many of the internal settings just those in the settings page.

some web pages will take for every. I did a race...FF vs edge...edge won big time. I don't like edge but on some sites I'm being forced to use it.

any suggestions.

I have been having problems logging into Spectrum's website on my computer. I can login to the website using another browser. I have contacted Spectrum, they went over my entire account and stated that everything is working like it should. The person said to contact Firefox and have them check my account for any blocks. I can access any website and login without a problem using Firefox but Spectrum. Can you please help me. I really like Firefox as my browser and don't want to have to switch. Thank you.

The autofill function works great for forms and applications but not so much when I'm entering online contests. When they ask me for my TikTok, Instagram, or Twitter username, it will not autofill those. I always have to do it myself in FireFox. But Microsoft Edge doesn't have that problem. Why doesn't it remember what I type in for those types of entries?

Since a recent Firefox update it has decided to log me out every single day which is very annoying...I have looked at solutions that only computer guru's would understand and I have no time or desire to trouble shoot this. Therefore, I will be using a different browser until this problem is solved.

Thank you

cnbc.com will not allow me to sign in to my account. They want me to disable ad blockers, etc., except I don't have any ad blockers installed. Other times they deny my sign-in saying RECAPTCHA validation failed. I don't know if it has something to do with Mozilla Firefox or my virus protection (Bitdefender and Malwarebytes). The problem doesn't come up if I use another browser, like Google Chrome.

Firefox and EXREMEY High HDD Usage via "System.exe", and constantly Killing an 'Entire' PC's Capability..

..Sad to say, I'm writing this in another browser because of this EXTREMELY annoying problem, that's been an unresolved issue for the better part of a year now.. After close to two decades of using Firefox, I'm actually considering moving to something else at this point. It's getting to be remarkably inconvenient using Firefox recently.

Why the hell has Firefox been using such remarkable amounts of system-side HDD for prolonged amounts of time? (Primarily the System.exe process) on a "Very" annoyingly basis?? It's clearly Firefox causing the issue, stimulating the "System" process. It slows down the entire computer in entirety, including just trying to load a basic webpage (such as Google's homepage) for God's sake!

This needs to be fixed, it has been going on for far, far too long now! Even on a very up-to-date PC, it takes 10 or more minutes to get the damn browser to work, while it's killing everything else on said computer due to very, excessively, System HDD usage, without the ability to load a single page, or file, folder and etc...thus ruining the purpose of a 'browser' and the entire computer as well.

The 'System.exe' Overload needs to be fixed. I, and all of my customers are tired of using Firefox because if this. It's pushing people away from what 'use' to be a wonderful browser.

I know factually it isn't a virus issue, or otherwise.

Please, fix this issue before it drives away the majority of your users.

Every time I use the browser, I am delayed by : p.typekit.net for a little while before I get results. Why? Can this be removed from the search or browser? I can use a book mark and I get the same hang up on p.typekit.net EVERY time. It slows the browser quite a bit. I have used Firefox for over a decade and would like to keep using it. If you can't fix or can direct me how to fix I need to change browsers because the browser lag is getting stupid. Please help.
