I had a similar problem. After upgrading from Feisty to Gutsy Firefox
would not load many websites, or would load them after extreme delays.
The workaround of setting network.dns.disableIPv6 in Firefox's
about:config to true made all pages load quickly. Instructions for the
workaround with pictures are here:
http://en.opensuse.org/Disable_IPv6_for_Firefox

My internet service is Qwest DSL to MSN, Actiontec GT701-WG, firmware
3.60.1.0.4.1

resolv.conf:
# generated by NetworkManager, do not edit!
search domain.actdsltmp
nameserver 192.168.0.1
nameserver 205.171.3.65

The router's DNS server uses 205.171.3.65 and 205.171.2.65

I've included the results of dig AAAA for examples of things that just
worked and things that didn't work at all. There's no pattern, the
results all look the same (no answer). Does anyone want me to sniff the
actual Firefox DNS traffic with IPv6 dns enabled again, or any other
sort of test or possible actual fix?

Update manager seems to work, and I haven't had any trouble with email,
but that's on a domain that worked fine in Firefox.
