Firefox 10 Download window appears blank Windows XP
When I attempt to download a file it appears to download however when I download it the downloads window appears however it is blank and I can't right click on it and everything is greyed out. I would normally right click then go to OPEN CONTAINING FOLDER.

Downloading is something other add-ons and programs may interfere with.
- see unable to download or save files for troubleshooting info and tips.
The final suggestion in that is to try general troubleshooting which includes disabling other add-ons and plugins
I disabled all add-ons and plugins to no resolve I restarted firefox afterward as well.
Check a setting: Firefox button > Options > Options (or Tools > Options) > Privacy, check "Remember download history"
I you want to keep download history, do not clear in when using Clear Recent History or when automatically clearing history when Firefox closes
- See --> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History
- If you use a cleaner application, like CCleaner, check your settings (CCleaner has an option to clear Download History).

Not related to your question, but...
You may need to update some plug-ins. Check your plug-ins and update as necessary:
- Plug-in check --> http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
- Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in: Installing (or Updating) the Shockwave plugin with Firefox
- Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape: Installing/Updating Adobe Reader in Firefox
- Shockwave Flash (Adobe Flash or Flash): Updating Flash in Firefox
- Next Generation Java Plug-in for Mozilla browsers: Installing or Updating Java in Firefox
Ok so you tried safe mode and disabling plugins, what about the other suggestions in the article; then the suggestions in the linked article.
Have you searched for the downloads, do you know whether they are not downloading; or whether you just do not see them in the download folder.
