The homepage is right justified with no access to the scroll tools on the right of the screen
The homepage for firefox is seemingly justified to the right of the screen, and there is no access to the scroll toll that is normally on the right side. Have tried changing the size of the screen, with no change. Can only use the up and down arrows to move arround the page. There also is no scroll tool at the bottom, the left and right arrows and ineffectual for movement side to side.

First of all try these, which may have aggravated the problem:
- Ctrl+0 (zero) to reset text and probably images back to normal.
- View > Page Style > Default (eliminate themes)
- F11, toggles in/out of full page zoom.
Window expanded to far to the right and down, so you are missing both the vertical and horizontal scroll bar, and the rounded corners at the bottom of the window. Resize the window
- Drag window by title bar at top window
- Resize window, by dragging edges of window, and then move window up.
- (Windows) use "Alt+SpaceBar" and chose "Move" you will also need to resize with "Size" from there as well
- The above you can use anywhere, but since you can copy and paste the following, it might be faster then above. Paste the following into the location bar and press "Enter" (or the arrow within the location bar a few times until your window is once in full view and you see rounded corners. Suggested keyword for this bookmarklet "resize:reduce".
- javascript:top.resizeTo(screen.width*0.8,screen.height*0.8);self.moveTo(0,0);
I expect that solves your problem, but if not ...
If still no solution try Firefox Safe Mode. If it works in safe mode then an extension or an extension setting is almost certainly the cause.

- when the dialog comes up don't change any settings go directly to the "Continue in Safe Mode" button. on the screen.
If that works then you need to identify the extension at fault. By disabling half until if works then dividing the last previous in half and test until fails, better described in
