Firefox 136.0.3 is ridiculously slow even in Safe Mode

[Graham_M]

Earlier today I upgraded to Firefox 136.0.3 64 bit with Windows 10 and now, even in Safe Mode, it's extremely slow to load pages, if at all.

If I run it in normal mode with NoScript, uBlock and various other add-ons active, it is effectively unusable because pages simply will not load, just sit there with the hourglass on the tab.

I tried to downgrade to the previous version, but it's telling me that my profile is from a later version, so I need to create a new one.

Anyone got any ideas how to fix this as I'm having to post this in Chrome because I can't even Log In here using Firefox!

 ADDENDUM: I found the Firefox Task Manager and restarted in Normal mode.

I've got it trying to use 140% of CPU!
