Good morning, I have a question I have a 32 bit hp pc and a 64 bit hp pc on my desktop when I click my Firefox Icon for my browser to open it takes 25 seconds for my 64 bit browser to open and 8 seconds for my 32 bit browser to open.and I have both browsers setup the same and both are Firefox.any ideas why the difference?Thanks Jerry :)

I'm not fully understanding "32bit PC and 64bit PC"; are these two different Machines?

Thanks for responding Edwin, yes that is 2 different machines both are HP desktops one is a 32 bit pc and the other is a 64 bit pc. and they both boot up fast no problem but when i click on my Firefox browser to go on the internet the 32 bit pc browser opens completely in 8 seconds the 64 bit pc setup the same way with Firefox browser takes 25 seconds .I can not understand the difference.
I am really curious. Thanks. Jerry :)

Try resetting that super slow FF, even on my ancient laptop with single core and XP x64 it opens in 5 seconds.

Hi, @jerrypc1:

In addition to the excellent advice already offered....


Thanks
I agree, even 8 seconds to open sounds a bit slow.

Most problems with Firefox (Fx) originate in the user's profile, not in the program itself.
Before resetting it, there are a few, less drastic troubleshooting steps you might try.

They are outlined here:
Firefox - Standard Diagnostic
Fix slowness, crashing, error messages and other problems

Hope this helps,

Thanks Moxie Momma I will try your suggestions and let you know when I get off Work.Jerry :)
