Why Duncan? TESTING! If it's doing something screwy then it's time to test! Create a
shortcut to you firefox like this: "firefox.exe -profilemanager", then create a new
acccount to test with. In the end you can switch accounts the same way. New account =
no improvement then the only choice is backup FF & you profile(s), and do a clean
install of FF w/ new profile.
How would using a "new browser window" and not using tabs = lower cpu or ram usage?
If anything this would mean greater usage on both.
Another tip is TabMixPlus which gives better control over how tabs work.

I am still having trouble with "tabs" for some reason. If "tabs" are
enabled, the FF3 browser just grinds to a halt quickly; like right after
the 2d "tab". If I disable "tabs" and us "open in a new browser page,"
FF3 works great; just like IE. This is my current run choice.
I know that problem is here locally. I just have not found it and
killed it!!!!! LOL!
Several have suggested that I just kill/erase the current FF install and
start fresh. An option, perhaps, but I am still wondering why? I
started w/FF3.01 and am not at FF3.05 (using NoScript and CSLite).
Whatever. Not an operational issue for me ATM.
Best,
Duncan
