[FireFox] Blank screen

Click for full size
Just installed the 1.03 Version after I uninstalled the previous version and all I get is a blank screen. Forcastfox and all other extensions won't load. Navigation buttons don't work either. Anybody have a clue about what might have caused this> Uninstalled it and reinstalled the previous version and it now does the same thing.

Try this: Run FireFfox in the Safe Mode

"Start -> Run" (on Windows) and typing:

"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -safe-mode

If that doesn't work make a new Profile:

Backup your existing profile - Your profile directory is typically found here:

"Start -> Run" (on Windows) and typing:

C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\

In order to create a new profile, you use the Profile Manager. To start the Profile Manager in Windows, follow these steps:

1. Close Firefox completely (select File > Exit from the main menu of Firefox).
2. Select Start > Run... from the Windows Start menu.
3. Enter firefox.exe -profilemanager and press

I've had that happen when a theme or extension I'm using either gets corrupted, or as in your case, doesn't work with the new version installed.
