    I'm having some serious memory management issues with Firefox that I'm discussing in another thread, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's a memory issue that's causing the stuttering for me. I wonder if the OP is also having large memory consumption by Firefox?

    Two things:

    1. Have you tried resetting Firefox to factory settings?
    2. Have you ran ADWCleaner to scan for any bad addons/things hiding in your browser?

    1-yes, and i will never do that again.
    2-no

    I'll look at that cleaner, but if like that CC cleaner someone posted, i don;'t want to lose all my settings and temp files and such. Been there done that rarely helps, always causes me headaches.

    I posted about CCleaner :)

    Cleaning temporary files is a good thing for your system, there's a reason they're temporary!

    Running it will not reset/change your settings, CCleaner is for clearing temporary files and left over files from previous installations etc. Stuff that your computer will do better without... it will/may even boost your overall computer speed.

    Try both CCleaner and ADWCleaner and post back the results. Also with ADWCleaner post the scan log please!

    Thanks!

    I tried that ADWcleaner but again, it screws things up. Luckily i knew it probably would and instead of deleting files it suggested i renamed them then restarted the browser to find all my settings gone. I just deleted the newly generated file and renamed the old one back to normal to get it all back. But thats why i don't like doing these things. Plus i was quite sure it wasn't going to be something like that. And sure enough in a google search i found a mention of this issue related to outdated drivers and did a total intel system driver update which fixed it. Thanks for the replies in any case.
