I have W7 on my A505 Toshiba. I have Fox News (home page), Comcast home page and Comcast mail tabs displayed. I close the laptop lid. Reopen several hours later and performance is slow. X out of mail, Comcast, and then try to X out of Fox and computer hangs up. This has started within the last couple weeks. During that time, I downloaded an Adobe update only.

Hi,

You can try to updating Firefox and check. If the problem persists, you can also try to Disable suspicious Plugins in Tools (Alt + T) > Add-ons. Please note that this may also happen if the laptop close lid action was changed from sleep to hibernate because Windows would take more time to restore the saved state from disk.

Thanks. I'm presently in a slow internet area. When I return home, I'll try it.
