Do you really need ipv6? I doubt that this has anything to
do with the problem at hand, but if you don't need it, you
should remove it. If you don't know anything about ipv6,
it's very probable that you don't need it.

IPV6 is a protocol

Yep.

that is (AFAIK) just a layer below TCP/IP.

Wrong. Besides: "just a layer below TCP/IP" makes no sense.
TCP/IP is a protocol family. Two of those members are IPv4
and IPv6. Now, what's "just a layer below TCP/IP" supposed
to mean?

I wouldn't remove it if I were you.

Why not? Why leave in things, which are not needed and which
are known to possibly cause problems?

Try a blank Firefox profile. To create one, run "firefox -ProfileManager".

I don't see how that would help anything.

It would help, if the problem is on his side, caused by bad
settings in his profile. If everything's faster with a blank
profile, he knows for sure, that the problems were caused
by his old profile.
