Have you tried to run it in safe mode?
The command is firefox -safe-mode
This will work if you have installed some Firefox extensions. I have
noticed the same delayed response sometimes. It's as if there's some
kind of hidden struggle in the background. Normally, I clean it after
browsing via the tools menu, and Privacy. Have a look at the following
site for uninstalling:
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/releases/1.5beta2.html#uninstall
In may case, I prefer Firefox version 1.0.4 because it's compatible with
Firevox and Fangs screen reader emulator. It has a JawsAssit menu when
voice extensions are installed, but it doesn't work with Jaws itself. It
works with SAPI 5 as well as NeoSpeech, which is wonderful. Plus, it
helps debug rebellious or unaccessible web pages by providing a detailed
description of what a good screen reader should normally say when it
functions properly.

Hi,
The other day Firefox started to open very slowly, taking two or three
minutes. I have done all the normal things... virus scan, ad ware
scan, defrag and so on. Firefox 1.5 beta 2 will not uninstall. If
anyone has any ideas I'm open to suggestion. I am running Jaws 7.0,
Firefox 1.5 beta 2, and Windows XP Media Center.
