When I download and browse the location to save a file all I get is a grey box, there is no directory displayed for me to browse and save files.

I've refreshed mozilla, scanned the computer using Avast + Boot scan.

I've also tried uninstall and reinstall mozilla, nothing seems to fix this problem. I only get this using Mozilla.

Tried to attached an image but I can't browse to select it...
