Slow browser loading for the first time!

Every time when I turn on the computer or after a restart, it takes a while for the system to get going as usual, but the problem is no matter how much time passes, for the first time I open any browser after the computer was turned on, it takes too long to even the browser's window. This happens for every browser. I have tried emptying the cache to no avail, disabling different add-on and the problem still persists. Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry for the delay, I run the System File Checker and the diskcheck command and all system files and local discs showed no corruption. Also the malware scans below showed nothing more than some tracking cookies, which I don't believe are the source of the problem.

How long is too long? Can you give us the time in seconds or minutes?

It is normal for the first start of any app to take longer the first time. How long it takes depends on several things. Like ICit2lol said, we need to see your System Specs.

Here are my system specs


For some odd reason, if I start the browser from the desktop shortcut, it loads considerably faster to open the home page, the problem it seems is only with the taskbar shortcut. If I open the browser from the taskbar, it takes average 1 minute and a half, sometimes more and if I don't click it again to open a second browser window it takes even more, from the desktop shortcut it takes 15 to 20 seconds.

Yeah the drivers are up to date, just tried resetting the sticks, no difference.

Thanks, it seems that too many processes where loading at boot and that slowed it down. Also a re-install of Mozilla and Chrome helped. Thanks a bunch.
