I have a mac running OS X 10.6.8 (all updated). Running Firefox 11. Firefox loads with all bookmarks, passwords in place. No webpages are accessible, even bookmarks. I type a URL, like www.google.com, the www. is grayed out, but the google.com is black text. No page loads, no errors or messages. The tab says "New Tab". I click on a bookmark, the New Tab blinks for a millisecond to "connecting" and i get the same white page.

Alternatively, the same OS, different user, firefox and profile works fine.
