Firefox is no longer displaying webpages properly.
After a system update, Firefox is no longer displaying webpages properly; e.g., no graphics in Google or Yahoo, like bare bones html. Have tried system restore, no effect. I have the latest version, 8.0.1, and have re-installed it. Plug-ins seem up-to-date. Pages display okay in other browser. Thought of trying uninstall, but concerned about losing favourites, etc. OS is Windows 7, x64 bit. Please help. Thanks.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

It was just the cache! Weird, embedded videos wouldn't play, even youtube vids wouldn't play. All well now. Thanks so much!
Best,
