No matter what i click, Things such as a form button or any link on the page. or open a new websites. It happens like it freezes my firefox for like 4-5 seconds and then bring it back to life and says connecting on the tab and again freezes for 5 seconds and then appears the page title. Not sure whats wrong. 3.6 was working absolutely fine this is the problem only with FF4. Any help would be appreciated. Else i will have to roll back to 3.6 which i dont want to do :(...

Try running Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

Worked perfect in safe mode, As promised by firefox. FASTER THAN EVER BEFORE.... So what do i do ? i had some incompatible addons which are disabled right nw. Shall i un install them ? or you knw any of the addon from my list which is giving the error ?

Uninstall the ones you know about, yes.

As regards the others, it's difficult to say. All you can do is to disable them all via Safe Mode (checkmark "Disable all add-ons", then "Make changes and restart") and then re-enable them one by one checking each time until the problem recurs. Laborious I know, but the only sound way of doing it I'm afraid.
