I have emptied the cache but even after reStarting Firefox, the text remains in the reply box. I am using FF 16.02 WITH xp SP3

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

  • Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Hi, I tried the safe start and then checked the extensions, the problem seems to have dissappeared after enabling Java Console, cheers
