"Firefox 3.5.1 is out, and the bug is marked as fixed.

Upgrade and you should be back to normal."

"Frans Bouma has a very good explanation of why this is happening

and the solution

In brief: Firefox is scanning your temporary files to create a random number for encryption. The solution, wait for them to patch in so that they rely on a windows function instead."
