I set google as my homepage but firefox freezes totally whenever I open it. If i click a link on an external programme, it opens in Firefox fine, it's only google related sites.

Do you have McAfee Site Advisor installed, that extension has been causing problems particularly with Google. If you have it try disabling it to see if Firefox works. You can also try installing the latest version (3.3.1) of the Site Advisor, that one should work.

Mozilla are planning on blocking older versions of McAfee Site Advisor in Firefox 4 due to the problems they cause.
