Thanks for the reply. Hope it's fixed soon. I for one will be celebrating. I spent a lot of time the past couple of weeks reading problem reports & trying various fixes before finding out about disabling protection mode.

It is a case of try it after upgrades and see if it works.

There will probably be celebrations if and when it is fixed ;-)

I have not noticed any Firefox staff predicting imminent fixes. (Which reminds me I need to try something, I remembered reading about a novel solution that I have not yet tried)
