What browser your using?
I use Chrome but I fucking hate every browser that I've tried. I used to love Opera 9 but it ended up getting busted and wouldn't properly display any website. Since HTML 5 was introduced none of the browsers that support it do what I want them to.
@Guided_By_Tigers: Happened to me to for a while. Try this and see if it works.
@psylah: This is where I'm at too. I'm finding Firefox more and more unusable with its memory-hogging ways, and having one machine on the beta channel I can say it doesn't look like they're even trying to solve it. So I'm trying to transition to Chrome. But it still doesn't have all the functionality I want, at least not that I can find in extensions.
@Guided_By_Tigers: Just see if that helps. They updated the browser not to long ago and that's when the performance of my Chrome took a nose dive. I did that thing with the Flash player and it seemed to fix everything.
IE9. I've been having a lot of problems with Chrome lately and some of my friends tasked me with using IE9 and doing some (un-bias) comparisons. I'll post what I found here as well.
Yesterday I said fuck it and switched to Chrome after Firefox had been giving me speed issues for some reason. So far it's pretty awesome.
Chrome for GB and Google Reader / News. Firefox for most everything else. Baffling as to why Google products don't work well in Chrome.
Most people I know use Chrome, and the few that I know that have the "OHGODGOOGLEISOUTTOGETALLMYINFO" mentality use Chromium.
I can't even count the number of times this poll has been created...here's a decent one.

I've switched back and forth between Firefox and Chrome, but I prefer Firefox these days and use it most of the time. Ugh, at work I'm only allowed to use IE.
I use Internet Explorer.......
To download the most recent Firefox.....
And then I use that to download and use Chrome
Firefox. Tried Chrome once; found all the Chrome versions of the add-ons I use to be less reliable, so I moved back to Firefox. Haven't had any problems with it in ages.
What are all these extensions and plug-ins you guys keep talking about? I feel like I'm a dinosaur and I'm missing out on all this functionality because the only thing I use is Adblock.
I use chrome mostly. Firefox eats up too much memory. Although I have a tendency to open a different browser rather than mess with a lot of tabs so before long I usually wind up using both. Sometimes I'll even pop open IE.

Things like adblocker. Thats the only extension I have. Go to the Chrome store and download any extensions that tickle your fancy. Some are free... others are just harder to get for free.
