Okays, and its sure you are using IE to post this question. :)
Looks like you have setup-ed master password sometime back. If that is the case, i would recommend you to do the following:
- Uninstall Firefox
- Go to Program Files and remove the directory Mozilla Firefox
- Go to C:/Users/Your_username_directory/AppData/Local and remove the folder Mozilla.
Now try reinstalling firefox. Let us know if it is fixed.
Cheers!
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
- Firefox 20.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
- Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
- It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.
