Started this morning, some websites take 2-3 times longer to open, and games take at least that much extra time. Firefox just downloaded 51.0.1 this morning, which is when the problem started.

Really slows down websites, I'm running windows 7 on a 64 bit machine with 12 gigs of memory and 32 bit firefox.
