EBay item pictures take a long time loading. Not so with Internet Explorer

Last week I downloaded and installed Firefox 5.0. Ever since, and mostly noticeable on ebay where there are several pictures of each auction item, the pages load very slowly, certainly a situation that I have never experienced with any other version of Firefox.
I checked out the same pages with Internet Explorer which I haven't used much at all since Firefox....and discovered no such loading problem. So it totally Firefox 5.0.
What can I do to correct this
My OS is Windows 7 with a lot of memory.
I haven't noticed the same webpage loading problem on most other pages. Mostly with eBay. What gives?
Thanks

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.

Takes a long time to connect to the internet when I first open an app

I bought my Macbook Pro Retina 13inch last weekend and I love it! Everything was working fine but over the last couple of days, when I first open an app, for example Safari, Google Chrome, iTunes, App Store, anything that requires an internet connection, it takes a long time to load up that first time, but after the first page has been loaded it works again fine until closing the app and re-opening it. When loading the App Store or iTunes it has even said an internet connection is required, even though my connection is fine and the other apps are still loading ok.
I first thought it was my WIFI connection but I have checked my router and everything seems fine, also my iPad and iPhone are still working fine with the internet.
Has anyone else had the same problem or can offer me a solution?

I am getting the same issue, on first starting safari the first page takes an age to load.. once it has everything is fine.
I have tried the 'Reset Safari' function but no difference. This only happens on my Macbook Pro Retina, Using safari on my iphone or ipad is fine. (I connect via ethernet too so its not a wifi problem.)
Any one got an answer to this yet?

Outlook 2010 takes a long time to open emails with embedded images

Hello,
outlook 2010 on windows 7 both with latest updates applied. outlook is in online mode and the option "Don't download automatically in HTML email messages or RSS tiems" is not selected.
it takes a long time to open the message with an embedded picture: at 6 sec to open an image size of 75kb
When I open the same message in OWA no delays at all.
I am using Exchange server 2010 Sp2 and I already created new outlook profiles for the users affected. no changes.
Any ideas?

Hi Aprylmsx,
According to your description, I recommend you refer to the following methods to troubleshoot the issue:
1. Please check if there is any anti-virus software on your client PC, if yes , please disable it and check the result.
2. Please check if there are any 3rd party add-ins in your outlook, if yes, please remove it and check the result.
In addition, How many users encounter this issue? a lot or just only you?

I can no longer open my Comcast email when I launch from Firefox - it takes me to the email preview page but will not allow me to open the inbox . Does not happen with Internet Explorer.

This started last month - when I go to my comcast account, I'm able to log on and view my account but can not open my email inbox. When I enter my user name and password, I'm taken to the "Email Preview" page so that I can see a partial view of the inbox but when I click on "View Entire Inbox" it jumps to a page showing that it's loading but goes right back to the preview page - I can't open any of the emails. This does not happen when I use Internet Explorer or Firefox on my older laptop.

Did you find out what addon?

Cannot go from AOL Mail to Aol Portfolio without reloading 5-10 times. This does not happen with Internet Explorer!

'''bold text'''I cannot use website extensions (AOL, AOL Mail, AOL Portfolio, etc., without experiencing difficulty. Must "Reload" the extended page site numerous times before it will come up. No error message. I do not experience the same or similiar problem when using Internet Explorer!!!

my guess is IE7 might need to be reinstalled. you're brave to install it in the first place. my advice, however, would be to use firefox

Time Machine takes very long time to back up with new large drive

I started using Time Machine on my 17" MBP about a month ago. I was using a 250 GB Samsung drive. When I discovered that TM will back up other external drives (I have several firewire pocket drives), I purchased a 500 GB Cavalry drive with USB 2.0 and eSATA connections. The first backup of my MBP drive (about 85 GB) took several hours (4-6?). I backed up one of my pocket drives (about 60 GB), which took 3-4 hours. Then, when I changed the back-up drive in Time Machine to the new 500 GB drive with the eSATA connection, I stopped it after an hour, because only 2 GB had been backed up. I erased the drive and restarted using the USB connection. It backed up 3 GB in an hour. So, now I'm back to using the original back-up drive. I've performed benchmark tests on all drives (the Samsung 250, Cavalry USB and eSATA 500 GB, and the MBP internal drive) with Xbench. The USB speeds on the Samsung and Cavalry drives came out about the same with a slight edge to the Cavalry drive. The eSATA connection with the Cavalry drive operated at over twice the speed of the USB connections and at about twice the speed of the MBP internal drive (which is a 1.5 Gb/s SATA drive). Basically, I can't figure out why Time Machine takes so incredibly long to back up when I switched to the new drive. Any ideas?

It took me 20 hours to backup 32GB out of 65. I don't know why. Using carbon copy clone to download to another backup drive I did it perfectly in about 30 minutes. I expect that those appllications which show applicatiions are at fault and will try later getting rid of apps such as F-10 and pathfinderfor the first download. I have no idea why this is so slow. Everything is so slow.

HT1846 Windows take a long time to boot up with black screen and a blinking cursor. Help anyone?

Im running 64-bit windows 7 on my late 2012 mac mini. When it boots, it takes around few minutes to boot to windows. During the few minutes, it shows a black screen with a blinking cursor at the top left. Is there any ways to remove it and go straight to windows?

Uc520 - outbound calls take a long time

hi,
got my uc520 working, inbound calls work rigth away but outbound calls take a long time...
so when I run any sort of debug on my uc520, I dial a number let's say 9 555 555 5555 it will take about 15 seconds before anything shows up in my debugs.
so it does work but calling out not sure what happens takes a long time.
this is all with a sip provider.
I know it,s not the sip provider because as I said before any debug information is showed on my console between me dialing the number and hitting DIAL and the time anything shows up it takes about 15 seconds.
ideas?

so here is the test I did today,
my UC520 at home is behind my isp's (linksys type device) so my uc520 gets a 192.168.x.x
so behind my own isp it takes a good 20 seconds before the phone I'm calling rings.
I took my device and put it in my dad's house where my uc520 gets the public ip, dhcp but still I get the public ip.
it takes about 5 seconds which is normal.
any idea why in my house before any debug starts showing up in my terminal why it takes about 15...20 seconds and when the uc has the public ip it takes about 3 to 5 seconds?
I just run
debug ccsip messages.
my dad,s internet I get the public ip it after 3 seconds debug information shows up.
on my internet it takes about 20 seconds before any debug information shows up and my uc gets a 192.168.x.x from the providers modem/router device.
thanks

Firefox takes a long time to load, even with add-ons and auto-update disabled

When opening firefox it takes a long time (1 minute +) to load. The computer does not display any indication that firefox is loading (often leading to 2, 3 or 4 instances of Firefox trying to start due to my impatience).
My OS is Windows Vista 32 bit
Firefox is v4.0.1

Can you check your Windows Firewall settings? It's possible that it's routing Firefox requests differently. At least one other Firefox user has reported that his Windows Firewall was set to block Firefox 3.6.

OK. If you believe that.
When the disk is starting to die it can be bad for a moment and then be good for a while. If there was no problem while you were checking it of course it shows up good.
I tell you those are the signs of a disk that is about to die.

Hi arunarun,
What site are you visiting for the photo editor?

I have a ipad 1. I seem to be having a lot of connectivity issues. It takes a long time to load and sometimes will not load a page at all. I seem to be having issues with streaming in that it will play a song and just stop.

I seem to be having a lot of connectivity issues my iPad. It takes a long time to load and sometimes will not load a page at all. I seem to be having issues with streaming in that it will play a song and just stop. It seems I have to turn it completely off and restart.
Anyone had these issues?

Firefox is running slow, sluggishly, websites take a long time to load, to connect. I've done everything this board has suggested.

Firefox is really starting to annoy me. Sometimes it runs slow and sluggishly, other times it doesn't. Usually it does though. When I open new tabs, the connection icon will just keep swirling. I constantly get High CPU Useage alerts from my virus protection. I've done everything listed in the below articles. Does anyone have some advice? Firefox didn't use to be like this.
Thank you.

Alright, it's getting to the point where I can barely use FireFox anymore. It's getting worse by the day, I don't understand. Web pages take a LONG time to load, but sometimes they don't....it's hit or miss. But when they do take a long time, they take a long time.
It's getting very bad. I don't know much about computers, safe mode, and all that. It would really help if someone could walk me through what to do, like they would a 10-year old... actually a 10-year old probably knows more than me. Well you get the idea.
I really want to keep using this browser, but if I don't get it fixed I will have to stop. Like I said in the initial post, I've done all the things those two links suggested. It got better at first, but now it seems like it's gotten worse.
