Lucky for me,...Yes, I came across the same problem. Lucky for me, my notebook has a DualCore CPU, so Firefox is still running with acceptable speed. But it causes pretty high CPU load and it's nearly unusable with these add-ons on my single CPU business notebook.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure whether this is caused by a single add-on or just by the number of add-ons (more than 20). Maybe Firefox 3 will be faster.<BR/><BR/>greetings, tokeiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4038945668092412756.post-89120645272989272712008-03-27T21:14:00.000+02:002008-03-27T21:14:00.000+02:00Greetings tokei,Thanks for your updated post... go...Greetings tokei,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your updated post... good work mate!<BR/><BR/>Sorry, I did not get to try the FastForward add-on.... in fact, I had to disable all add-ons because of very high memory and CPU usage caused by one of the add-ons (my whole PC had a slow response time).<BR/><BR/>I disabled them all and Firefox returned to its speedy status....so, I am in the slow process of enabling them, one-by-one. {Problem is that the slowness appears after about 30 minutes!}<BR/><BR/>As soon as I have found the culprit, I will (let the authors know and) try out FastForward.<BR/><BR/>{If anyone has the solution, then please let me know!}<BR/><BR/>GreetingsHandyTechTipperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01698347451679790076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4038945668092412756.post-5904253353737322292008-03-27T01:05:00.000+02:002008-03-27T01:05:00.000+02:00Thanks HandyTipper.

I also wrote a follow-up article to my previous post. <BR/><BR/>Did you get the FastForward add-on to work?<BR/><BR/>greetings, tokeiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
