Problems with RC

more options

Firefox RC says 'connecting' even when it is finished connecting, it just doesn't go away, or sometimes it just sticks on 'new tab' even when I'm on a different website, also whenever I hover over an open tab a little weird grey box appears.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

It works fine in safe mode, but do you have any idea of which add on or extension may be causing this because the only reason i really use firefox is because of the extensions and add ons so if I can't use them it's pointless!!!
