Disable all your addons-Start in Safe Mode and see how it goes.

Working fine for me. I am running both XP and Win 7 no problems. Also both were updated with MS patches this morning and ran all day just fine. |

Same here, Firefox slows down after long use in windows 8. Sort of like a heavy memory leak or something. |

I have been running most of the beta versions of 18 and now the final and I have not observed any excessive memory usage or slowing down at all. Running Windows 8 on two computers and and I have FF 18.0 on both. |

Well I just reinstalled FF17 and all is well.
I didn't install the Flash update or the Microsoft patch yet..........so I'll see if those had any effect tomorrow.
What a PITA though.........FF has the update automatically checked by default,so I had to unplug my modem to get it installed . |

Keep us posted, I've never done anything as drastic as rolling back a Browser to a prior build due to issues.
... Good luck... |

Ya this was on my XP desktop and my W7 laptop doesn't have a problem,so I'm starting to wonder if it was that Microsoft patch.
Will see later. |

Which exact MS Patch are you referring to ? You might try to FX re-reset, it's worked well for me. » support.mozilla.org/en-U ··· problems |

I had some general application sluggishness on WIn7 Pro x64 after installing all those patches yesterday. Ended up rebooting a second time and the computer and apps including Fx v18 were fine. |

Just booted into another user and FF updated before I could stop it,but it seems fine now...........so I'm pretty sure it was that patch that I didn't install again. I've rebooted 5 or 6 times too. |

Well at least it is cleared up. |

There's definitely something wrong. The bookmark menus are very laggy after updating to 18. Task Manager shows Firefox using 10% of my i7-2600K when just moving around the bookmark folders. |

I had a problem with one of my browsers crashing ,so I just kept the prior flash dll and that solved it. But FF seems to be back to normal for me. |

I've got to agree with ZZZZZ. My FF 18.0 takes forever to load a page completely. For the first time I installed Chrome. Chrome is really fast, but I'm not used to it. That's the problem. I'm more familiar with FF. |

Well crap it's back.......damn it. It's a slight hesitancy when clicking a login menu or reply ,the cursor doesn't show up for a few seconds..........copy/paste has the same problem,when replying to a post. This is only happening in FF and only started after doing the 18 update. |

This is only happening in FF and only started after doing the 18 update. I can second that. Sometimes the cursor takes a long time to load and I've already been typing before I notice. Real pain. But it was like that the past few versions also. I notice sometimes flash player really starts sucking power after having live streams going for awhile |
