[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1105744, member: 56379"] Well I don't know about the "genius" part...but I'll give it a shot.;) Here are some various "generic" things to try: 1. How full is your hard drive? (if it's more than approx. 80% or so full this can start to cause performance issues) 2. When was the last time you restarted this computer?...try rebooting it. 3. When was the last time you repaired permissions? 4. Run disk utility to be sure your hard drive doesn't have problems. 5. Are you running any other programs other than your internet browser when you are having performance issues? 6. Do you have any programs installed that "auto-launch" on rebooting the computer? These could be causing issues. 7. How much ram does this computer have? If you're running too many programs simultaneously that will eat up all your ram...and not leave enough for the browser. If none of the above helps...is this Macbook Pro still under warranty?...if so...let the folks at the Apple Store check it out. HTH, - Nick [/QUOTE]
