Default firefox slow to save images


Hi Group,
When I right-click an image and choose "save image as", my system crashes
for about 20 seconds. Wont respond to any command. Then it frees up and I'm
back to normal. I can save instantly in IE and also Firefox on my laptop
works normally. I do all my regular maintenance, clean out cache, temp files
every day, run adware, spyware, etc. There's just a conflict of some sort on
my system. Any ideas will be appreciated.
Bob

1. Close Firefox
2. Go to your profile folder
3. Delete the following:
a) Cache Folder
b) Cache.trash Folder
c) downloads.rdf

Profile folder locations:
[http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/edit]

Start Firefox and see if you still have the problem. Report back.
