How I think of it:

And so at last the beast fell and the unbelievers [IE/OUTLOOK USERS] rejoiced.
But all was not lost, for from the ash rose a great bird [FIREFOX/THUNDERBIRD].
The bird gazed down upon the unbelievers and cast fire[FOX]
and thunder upon them. For the beast [FIREFOX/Mozilla browser] had been
reborn with its strength renewed[FIREFOX 2], and the
followers of Mammon [IE USERS] cowered in horror.

Get it?

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Ummm ... that's not exactly how I read it. Let me give you the meaning:

And so at last the beast fell [Netscape] and the unbelievers [IE / Microsoft adherants] rejoiced.
But all was not lost, for from the ash [Dead Netscape became Mozilla Open Source] rose a great bird [Phoenix was the original name of Firefox].
The bird gazed down upon the unbelievers and cast fire [yes, FireFox]
and thunder upon them. For the beast [Netscape] had been
reborn with its strength renewed [FireFox dominating market share], and the
followers of Mammon [Microsoft which is a profit-based organization] cowered in horror.

Like everytime i want to d/l i have to wait 10 mins for it to start, and it freezes up.

CEASE YOUR FAILURE

10 minutes = problem on your end. Stop blaming the browser and fix it.

How about you stop failing at computers?

With any browser, if a download is taking 10 minutes to start, the problem is on your end.

Mate I know.

Im just looking for some help to fix it.

I click on the downloads tab and it takes forever for it to open, firefox stops responding in that time.

My PC works as normal no freezes in that time aswell, its not my connection as IRC and MSN continue to run as normal.

Don't open the downloads tab. I don't generally open it unless it's a large DL that I want to keep tabs on (like a game demo or something).
