The persona I had set on my firefox has stopped working. I closed my browser after I was finished with it and when I came to use it again the persona would not load, I've tried reapplying a persona but none will apply and show up.

I've never had any issues with persona's until yesterday 16th Oct 11 @ at about 21:00 was working fine when closed

What version of Firefox are you running? Your user agent shows 3.0.10 - if that is the case you NEED to update!!

If you are running a recent version see below:

Your UserAgent string in Firefox was messed up by an addon that you installed. -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent

Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page. Filter = general.useragent. Right-click the preferences that are bold, one line at a time, and select Reset. Then restart Firefox

Will check that link out however I tried to update my firefox but after I had installed firefox it would load the browser and lock up. Tried reinstalling it from scratch at least 3 or 4 times. I've had to revert to an older install for now.
