go to system / synaptic package manager / and try seamonkey . Its the same company (mozilla) but seamonkey seams to be faster. Also try System/Preferences/Appearance / visual effects, and set it to none, or if its set to extra set it to normal. I'm still a newb to and switched from XP and found linux to be much faster on my old pentium III .

Can you help with this problem?
