Since installing Firefox 4 I receive this error message "TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined" each time Firefox is opened and when trying to access some websites. Very aggravating!!

After I disabled the last add-on that was installed prior to upgrading to version 4 the error was eliminated. Thanks!!
