Firefox opens and loads the web site, but it has a blank 3 inch border down the whole of the right hand side, Firefox is moved over to the left so that i can only see half of it. The red cross to close it down is still at the very top right hand corner!

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== Earlier this week.
