First of all I'd suggest to check which addons or extensions you got installed. Some addons/extensions change how Firefox behave (i.e. by changing home page) and can make problems. Be sure you have installed/enabled only extensions/addons that you know and use.

Secondly I would suggest you to upgrade Firefox to version 8 - the latest stable. It has many improovements and fixes.

Hello,

My solution;

If you use "WebMail Notifier", turn off. End try again (close Firefox).
