I'm guessing you've wiped some forum cookies or some such.

Try logging out and logging back in.

If you can remember your password of course :)

Ah OK. Hmmmmm.

To be honest I don't know. Maybe it is something to do with the 'Master Password' - did you have it set before?

Do you have anything in your privacy settings at all?

I would either perform a system restore (XP) or reinstall Firefox.
This is something i've never come across before :?

Best advice given thus far.


I had an "odd" FF issue the other day, in that it would not start up, under any circumstances - after rebootin & in safe mode. All I did is re-install over the top of itself & all was good again;)/

ok thryed installing again, still the same problem.
im doing a full format tonite anyway, ive got a pretty nasty case of spyware that spybot, adaware or spyware doc cant even get rid of :(

whilst this is a convo change i didnt feel the need to post another topic.

does anyone know if i can scan my computer for the windows updates, and batch download them all to save downloading them again after a format?

Most of them can be dlownloaded for updating a network.

Searching for either "Redistributable", "Redist" or "Network install" on thte MS UD site should offer some help;).
