Firefox 6

Ever since it updated to that version, every webpage loads slow. I disabled all my addons, and it seemed to help. I got firebug installed, but have no idea how to open it up to see what is causing the issue. I've also been getting a weird Javascript error: Exc in ev handl: TypeError: this.oRoot.enable is not a function

That pops up every time I open a page, close a tab, pretty much everything except jumping back and forth between open tabs. I got adblock pro installed with it's counterpart (forget the name at the moment). I really don't want to uninstall FF completely as I have many saved passwords stored. But if I absolutely have to I will.

Where do I go next, besides IE10?

I scrapped Firefox cause I noticed it was slowing down with each update.

I moved on to Pale Moon. It's basically a faster, sleeker version of Firefox. It really only supports newer hardware, which helps attribute to the speed (compared to Firefox, which supports almost all hardware). Have a look:

Pale Moon looks good. You can also try Chrome. I switched a while back and I like it a lot more than FF.

If you want you can try to revert it back to a earlier version.

I've been having issues with FF6 too. I'm going to try palemoon on your recommendation, right now. But, it's hard giving up the add-ons. I need my add-ons, man! I gotta have 'em! I gotta have 'em!

All the Firefox add-ons work with Pale Moon because Pale Moon is just a modified version of Firefox.
