Click the Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Plugins and disable the Yahoo! activeX Plug-in Bridge.

ActiveX is a Microsoft technology which isn't supported in Firefox and is inherently dangerous when run outside of Internet Explorer since it's actively targeted by hackers. You don't need it in any event to use Yahoo.

When you installed Foxit Reader, did you opt-out of the "Ask Toolbar" installation? If not, then you have it on your system. Remove it via Add-ons, then Extensions. There are compatibility problems between Ask and Firefox at the moment.
