Firefox 14.0.1 stalls resources for a few mins upon OSX10.6.8.boot up
This has been happening for awhile and I have been living with it but it has become increasingly annoying. Everytime I turn on my Mac Pro (Intel) running OSX 10.6.8 or restart, then open Firefox to browse, my computer stalls and I am unable to use it for a few minutes. This only happens when I turn on or restart the computer. Any thoughts on what may be causing this and any ideas on the solution?

You mean that Firefox stalls on startup only the first time it is launched after computer restart? Try deleting Firefox's cache from the user library. It is inside the Caches subdirectory. Other than that, try this page.
Maybe the Mac OS hasn't finished setting up the internet connection or other services that need to run before Firefox can be started.
Did you test if it works if you deliberately wait that long before starting Firefox?
I tried deleting Firefox's cache from user/library/caches/firefox/profiles/XXXXXXXX.Default User/Cache. I also deleted mozilla-media-cache and startupCache with no luck. I then tried reinstalling after deleting Firefox under the application folder and deleting org.mozilla.firefox.plist in the user/library/preferences folder per instructions - no luck there as well.
The problem persists for example after opening Firefox for the first time hours after turning on the computer...
