Links from OE very slow to open

Am running Firefox browser, just lately when I click on an email link in Outlook Express it takes an age for it to come up on Firefox.

Also Firefox used to open with Google when launching but now comes up with Recommended Sites.

Have Googled fixes but can't seem to find anything definitive to fix these - thanks for any help.

Sounds like a cache or history clearing might be in order for the OE issue. Does FF open in normal time normally?

Re 'Home page' - what is that set to, and can you change it back to Google? Has something 'snuck in' and changed it?

A few suggestions here and here You have not said which OS or FF version?
