after update to Firefox 19.0.2 supposedly optimized for aol, browser seems to work fine except for aol mail. AOL mail opens, however after selecting new mail it will not allow one to open a new email by double clicking the message as is a normal way to open an email. It can be opened by right clicking the selected email message and selecting open in new window; however this mail cannot be replied to, saved or any other option as the option buttons on top of new window are inoperable. What's the fix- never was a problem in earlier versions of Firefox
