I recently updated mmy Firefox to 4.0, and now it doesn't starts, when I click it it seems as if it will but nothing happens. No crash warning or nothing. I'm using Ubuntu 64bit

Does this happen if you start Firefox in safe mode? Try running "firefox -safe-mode" in a terminal window.

You can also try creating a new profile by running "firefox -P".
