Downloaded upgrade to FF 4. Starts up fine but with blank tab for opening page. Reset homepage to my homepage (made sure that it was chosen in the options/general. Restarted FF. Still just a blank page. Tried customizing by showing menus. Restart. No menus, no home page. Opened second tab and went to Yahoo. Chose a story. Could not go back to Yahoo home page because back button inoperative.

Have reverted to FF 3.6.16, but would like to use FF 4 if possible.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)
