When I start Mozilla, the page comes up and locks-up for about 5 minutes. After this time, sometimes shorter, sometimes longer the lock-up clears and the program is useable. Happens every time I close and reopen the program. Not sure if I have some corrupted files and need to reload Mozilla?

I have had the McAfee Security Suite that comes with the Cox system for years. However, this problem is recent, last 3-4 months. Thanks!
