Windows lowers Firefox's task priority

I was having a lot of problems with Firefox 4.0.1 for several days, until I ran the Windows Task Manager, and fount that Firefox had a Below Normal priority.

I set the priority to High and all the problems disappeared.

I wonder how that priority setting was made?

Could it be that Windows Update did change the priority setting of Firefox to cause problems for Firefox users?
