It seems that the problem has no solution. All the various web browsers
suggested (many thanks to all listers), in alternative to Firefox, lose
capability and aren't fully functional: don't enter all the web sites and don't
open all web pages. Developers themselves couldn't help.
After closing Midori, my old PC for minutes and minutes remains very very slow.
Then gradually, slowly, painfully, only after five or ten minutes it starts
working normally again. So my problem is still there.
