This only happens on Minefield, NOT on Firefox (latest release)

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

2 weeks ago

User Agent

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:2.0b2pre) Gecko/20100705 Minefield/4.0b2pre

Chosen solution

There are many extensions that no longer work in the latest Minefield nightly builds because of changes made to registering XPCOM components. See http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=1937759

That is a problem with the Skype extension. See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems

Removing the Skype extension/add-on and restarting FF solves the problem.
