Relying on this message, I Just updated to Firefox 4. In the "manage
add-ons" section of tools\options\general, Firefox 4 says that Webvisum is
incompatible with Firefox 4 and offers only to remove it. The WebVisum
homepage recommends installing Firefox 3.5.
 
Where did you learn about the Webvisum update? Can you explain how to make
it compatible with Firefox 4?

About a year ago I found that an add-on was causing long delays with
Firefox. Is it possible you recently installed one? Or accepted an update to
one? It might be worth deactivating them one by one to see if the culprit is
there.

 

I do find that Webvisum slows Firefox down. When I use Firefox a lot, I
deactivate Webvisum until I need it.

 

Several listers report that Webvisum doesn't work with Firefox 4, so it's
wise to stay with 3.6. 

 

I used to be a Firefox enthusiast, but for me IE8 works better with JAWS 11.

Heya folks,

 

for awhile now when I load firefox 3.6.16 the latest update in the 3.6
version before it now goes to version 4, running Jaws 11 when I load firefox
it takes quite awhile to load and in the same time I totally loose Jaws
speech for a minute or 2 till firefox finally loads with web visum etc. Is
there a work around for this? and what maybe causing this long loading up as
firefox never use to be like this. Ive tried installing version 4 but it
doesn't work that well with Jaws 11.

I can handle waiting alittle longer for the load but I don't like losing
speech, this losing speech can also happen in some websites that I use with
firefox

 

Any help here would be appreciated.

 

Cheers,

 

Jim
