| 790927 | 2009-07-11 08:14:00 | I have recently moved over to Firefox 3.5 Its supposed to be quicker and slicker. Wow! Bring it on I thought, from my previous Firefox, which was ok, this new 3.5 was supposed to be fantastic! I don't know about anyone else but I feel this is slower that Google Chrome! Sin oh Sin! My main bite is Firefox 3.5 is very reluctant to use google.co.nz as my home page. The previous firefox version was great with google.co.nz as my home page??? If I go to one of my favourites, it works just fine, but still very reluctant to put up google. Perhaps I am the first to have a concern about Firefox 3.5 Anyone else. Any solutions? Cheers |

| 790928 | 2009-07-11 08:18:00 | Google NZ works fine here with 3.5. Did you put it in under tools / options / main / home page? So WHAT does it do if it doesnt go there? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 790929 | 2009-07-11 08:33:00 | Hi Speedie Yes, I did put in in under tools/options/main/home page. I have also types it into the main task bar, and waited...and waited.. and waited! ans it "loaded". |

| 790931 | 2009-07-11 08:40:00 | Must be something on your system stuffing things up, if it takes ages to load. It takes like 1-2 secs here for it to come up. Is that what youre saying? It takes a long time? Could be an addon if you've installed any |

| 790932 | 2009-07-11 08:57:00 | Hi Speedy Yes, it takes a long time to load the home page, as google.co.nz or google.com. If I use something else, one of my bookmark addresses for instance, no problems at all. The new "home page" arrives in 1-2 secs. Very weird. Yes, I do have some add-ons, perhaps I should delete these gradually one by one to see if an add-on is at fault. I will have a go and get back to you. Cheers Devie Boy |

| 790933 | 2009-07-11 09:13:00 | Back again Speedy I have removed all add-ons with no improvement. I can use another address other than google.co.nz or google.com with no trouble at all, but try google, and I will be waiting a very long time (if ever!) Cheers Devie Boy |

| 790934 | 2009-07-11 09:20:00 | Have you scanned your system for malware?? Does it do the same thing in internet explorer or another browser?? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 790935 | 2009-07-11 09:25:00 | Is your firewall set to allow this new version of Firefox? | zqwerty (97) | ||
| 790936 | 2009-07-11 09:28:00 | Have tried IE and Google Chrome with home page as google.co.nz with no problems what-so-ever. Just Firefox 3.5 seems to haave this hiccup | Devie Boy (12457) | ||
