I can't see my Gmail messages or attachments in Firefox, only the subject line, but I can in IE or when accessing from my Android.

I use Firefox 7.0.1 on my desktop using Windows 7. As of yesterday I can no longer view my messages in Gmail when I click on them using Firefox. A window comes up, but it just shows the subject line, not the rest of the message. I can see them in Outlook, and I can see them in Gmail from IE or from my Android.

I think I figure it out, looking at another web forum, looks like add block plus was somehow treating the body of the message as an add and it was blocking it, I disabled ABP for mail.google.com only and it worked! The weird thing however is that ABP was only blocking my e-mail address, not my wifes. Still, this needs to be looked at by someone from Add Block Plus I think

This is only happening on my e-mail account, My mail will open in Explorer fine, but in Firefox it only shows the subject, it shows the rest of the message in a separate tab if I try to print the message. My wife was able to open her gmail on a separate tab, and hers loaded just fine, subject and the rest of the message but on mine, I can only see the message and the Google adds, grrrrr please help!!! is this an Issue with Gmail???
