Foxfire Browser keeps resseting

Lately, I have been opening my Foxfire Browser to my Yahoo Mail Homepage, and everytime I click to another page, open an email, or click a pop-up, my Foxfire Browser will, re-direct me back to my original page. I will click on my Facebook page, open Facebook, scroll down, then I am re-directed back at my Yahoo Mail Page, or I will open an email, scroll down, back to the original email list again. I have tried using Ninemsn and scrolling through their news feed, only to be re-directed back to the main Ninemsn page again. The glitch is just annoying, as I can use the browser eventually, but I would like to get rid of it.

That is very odd.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?


If you still have the issue, Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe web sites. Is the problem still there?
