I guess that's a known problem on Windows. On Ubuntu linux the start up is almost immediate.

i'm assuming that was a biased remark either against windows, or for linux, cuz my FF starts up withing 5 seconds on Win XP.

You should try defragmenting your hard drive and scanning with at least two different anti-spyware programs and one anti-virus program. (not at the same time, of course)

That should be doable, but this site is for Firefox marketing. For technical support, use these resources:
