If nothing works i would recommend IE7 it might work better :)

Firefox has been known to hog up all the free RAM you have. But if you have any ADD-Ons that you don't need, then it would be helpful to disable them, and then restart firefox.

Try firetune. Make sure firefox is closed whilst using this free tweaking utility.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this question but I gave up trying to find a solution on the internet.

I am using firefox 2.0. My firefox browser is very slow. When I click on a browser tab it takes a few seconds before that tab is shown and I noticed that the memory and cpu jump up for firefox.exe during this time. CPU jumps to 100% and memory to something like 115,000K from 90,000K. Also firefox is always running with a minimum of 94,000K memory. Also opening web pages is very slow.

Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix this? Should I reinstall firefox again.
