Are you using Vista? In that case, one possible simple solution is 
running www.ccleaner.com, and that's a good idea on all operating 
systems anyhow.

If that doesn't speed up Firefox, the problem is most probably caused by 
some misbehaving extension(s). Simply disable them all and see if the 
problem is gone. If you have a lot, try disabling first one half and 
then the second half of your list (Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions). More 
info here:

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
