Something has gone crazy wrong with my 'contacts' for e-mail and the addresses are all a jumble of letters. What do I do?

I read one of my e-mail letters and wanted to forward it. When I clicked on the contact list to send "to" all the address were just a jumble of letters. ie: jdnter:@mdjl . Nothing made any sense. Has my e-mail been tampered with? Any suggestions? Please HELP I went back to try to 'copy' a sample to send to you but everything was back to normal. What happened?

Are you using a key scrambler extension (Comcast Constant Guard) ?

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
