Yeah, I keep fairly up to date with all browsers (even IE9

If you're worried about tracking, use Chromium instead..

Was using Chromium for a while, but after a few re-installs got lazy and forgot to install it.
Firefox seems to launch as fast as chrome for me, but I've no plugins installed in firefox atm on this machine.

Doubt it, it's the very nature of the firefox executable.
Plugins are loading in a different process called plugin-container.exe
Not sure if it's possible.

Yeah, I'd have a few plugins installed all right which could be causing it to waddle.
In fairness though, I'd have similar enough plugins installed in Chrome.
