I can't click on Firefox's "file edit view..." bar. It works for a few seconds right after opening Firefox, then stops. I have a mac, and can't think of anything I did that could have caused this.

Other programs work fine while Firefox is open, but when I go back to the Firefox window, the problem starts again. I click on the "fiel edit view" buttons, but nothing at all happens. It's been like this for a few days.
