Could you update Firefox (you have 6.0)?
thanks for your concern.but it is not working.
Did you try start in Safe Mode?
while it doesnt work use the scratchpad:
"Tools">> "Web Devoloper">> "Scratchpad" or press Shift+F4
at Scratdhpad
you type:
window.open ('http://addresshere.com','_self');
on "addresshere" type the destination, after click on execute or press Ctrl+R
Try to open a new window to see if that gives a working location bar.
If that work then close the not working window.
You can also try to delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).
You can check for problems caused by a corrupted localstore.rdf file.
