      Hi,

      I really like Moz toolbar but it's totally make my browser (Firefox 26) slower (open new tab, new site, close / open the browser, etc.)

      What can I do to make it works faster With Moz toolbar?

      Thanks

        Hey Joni,

        Thanks for reaching out. That's very odd. I've not heard a single other complaint about this. In fact most of us here use Firefox and have the Mozbar running constantly with no issue. 😞

        It's possible there's some other extension or program running concurrently that's causing the slowdown. You may also want to try reinstalling the Mozbar and FF just in case.

        I hope that helps.
        Cheers,
        Joel.

          Hi Joel,

          I tried to turn off all my add-ons and keep running with Moz toolbar only and it's still makes the browser very slower than before. When I turn off Moz toolbar the browser speed up again.

          I really like Moz toolbar but which options do I have now to make it work perfectly with Firefox?

          Thanks

            Hi Joni, sorry you are having issues. Are you on the latest version of the toolbar (2.63)?

            Honestly, we have not seen this bug before, and I cannot replicate it so it may be a local issue with your browser.  If it is an issue you could try using the Chrome version instead?

              Hi Jon,

              I have the latest version of Moz toolbar for Firefox (see attachment please).

              I already tried Chrome version and it's feel like working a bit better but still affecting negatively on browser speed.

              This is particularly noticeable when opening new tabs and crossing between tabs.

              I hope we'll solve this issue asap.

              Thanks

                Hey Joni,

                Is there any way you could try on a different computer?

                  Hello again Jon,

                  I already do that, it's the same like Firefox; When the Mozbar is on "Hide Mode" it's work fast but when this cause the browser performance to be slower.

                  Any suggestions?

                  Thanks
