If you use extensions ("3-bar" menu button# or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) that can block content (e.g. Adblock Plus, NoScript, Flash Block, Ghostery) then make sure such extensions do not block content. There is security software that can interfere with loading content, so check that as well.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button# or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button# or Tools -> Add-ons -> Appearance
- do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window

Mahtab: Sorry I wasn't specific but url was just a blank page..no error messages
cor-el: No add-ons or extensions installed..clearing everything using 3bar>>History>>Clear Recent History didn't help.
Cleared cache and removed cookies using 3bar>>Options and now GD downloads files.
Mahalo for your help
