Now for months, Firefox has been doing the spinning beach ball with practically every action I take on OS X 10.5.8.

It doesn't matter what I do -- try to type something, go to a webpage -- spinning beach ball.

Safari is a speed demon compared, but all my old bookmarks are in Firefox.

Where did you guys go wrong? This is a problem on both my laptop and my desktop running different systems.

Spinning beach ball. Spinning beach ball. I'm typing this on Safari and there is NOTHING wrong with THAT.

Try Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode and see if the problem persists. You can also check this topic and see if it answers your problem.

Odd . . . it SEEMS to be MUCH better in safe mode but I'll have to play around for a few days to see how it's doing.

Trouble is, I have no idea what add-ons are necessary (ie. Shockwave, Flip4Mac etc.) and what aren't. I guess I'll find out. But for now the beach ball is thankfully seemingly deflated . . .
