I installed an add-on extension to control popups and malware monitoring. Everything seemed to work, for about a week, and then Firefox began acting up. After working for a few minutes, Firefox looses all configurations, all images disappear, and all the text that is left flies to the left of the screen and stays there. The screen becomes grey and when I move the cursor over the grey area, it turns into a hand from the usual arrow pointer. If I can go to a Bookmarked page it might work (some seem too) or it might just mimic the exact same thing as Firefox. I've done everything I can think of to include, many reinstalls, reboots between reinstalls, clean installs, to searching for everything connected to Firefox has been deleted and then Firefox reinstalled with nothing but the most basic clean install possible. What's left.

Your system details is blank. That kind of computer are you using? What Firefox? List your add-ons.

Hold down the Shift key (On Mac the Options key) while starting Firefox to start in Safe Mode.

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:

Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

  • Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
