reinstall firefox, and get the most current version.
dsl can seem slow at times. there is no way to speed it up, or at least from your phone jack.
you might want to do a spy/ad-ware check, and a virus check won't hurt... try Spybot S&D, AD-aware, and Avast. if you can find nothing after that, try to do it in safe mode (press F8 before the XP splash comes up...)
might be good to do a malware check also... get Ewido. it is a trial for 30 days, but its good.
use google, ok?

oh. well sometimes too many firewalls can slow it down, but then you are more able to get a virus. i found that the internet browser Opera is brilliant, much faster than IE

It's better to de-activate the XP firewall and use the Virus one if you have one
I found that way easier
