FireFox freezing on when executed?
My FF loads up, then freezes anywhere from 5 to 30 seconds. This is extremely annoying? Does anyone else have this problem? Is it spyware? Should I post sys. specs.?

If you need them, UAS should work if you uninstall what you have and download the latest version from the author's website. Switchproxy should work if you disable its own internal autoupdate feature.
I don't know how to do any of this stuff, I just hire the guys that do
Have you considered reading the HELP folder. Right there on your menu bar.

Guest, try restarting firefox in Firefox safe mode and seeing if you can uninstall or disable it from there.
If that fails, a slightly more drastic solution is to try deleting the 'extensions' and 'chrome' subfolders in your profile folder (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Folde ... _folder.3F)
That will manually delete all themes and extensions. All the rest of your settings will be kept.

The bug is allegedly in Switchproxy's own autoupdate feature (not the firefox autoupdate) which snarfs when it tries contacting the developer's website. Others have however reported that disabling this feature does not cure the problem, and only uninstalling works.ChewyBass wrote:My problem began after installing the Switchproxy extension. As soon as I uninstalled the extension FF returned to normal behavior. Abviously there must be a bug in the software.
