Firefox freezing

I've had this problem since yesterday...
Whenever I try to start up Firefox, the entire browser just freezes, before it even gets to load the homepage (Google, in this case). I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling, deleting from the registry, and tried a spyware scan, but all to no avail.
Is there a fault with the latest update, or is it just me?
Thanks...

I've had no problems with the latest update.

Have you tried a Virus scan?

I've tried a spyware scan, but not a virus scan...
Know of any decent scanners?

Damnit!
Done a complete virus and spyware scan, reinstalled it numerous times (tried different versions too), tried a system restore, took Firefox out of the freezer, and STILL the problem won't go away!
It just won't load anything up without locking up!

Perhpas your cache is full?
(I'll try to find out how to empty it - Bjorn told me a while ago ;))
EDIT: "Tools" -> "Options" -> "Privacy" -> "Cache"
