Thanks, Andavari. I noticed that but didn't have time to check it out, now I know.

BTW, having that "suspend browser activity until . . ." box checked affects my load up of Firefox by much less than a second.

OK, so the day after that last post my Firefox load up was delayed by 2 seconds, maybe more . . . knew i shouldn't have mentioned it.

I haven't timed it however it's probably around 2 seconds. At least it isn't starting to load pages before that and then seconds later removing ad's from view that have already been displayed, tracked the user, etc.
