Firefox 5 cannot load properly. When it loads, it opens a blank frame with three sides showing (left, bottom, right). I say the frame is blank because it shows the blank desktop color inside the frame. Uninstall and reinstall was not successful. No crash id available as I cannot get an interface. Using Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. Toshiba laptop. I have a screenshot available if there is somewhere to post it. Other browser applications work with no problems.

-> Start Firefox in Safe Mode by Holding down SHIFT key while Starting Firefox

-> As an alternative method, press Win + R keys and enter one of the following in the Windows Run box: 

       firefox -safe-mode
                     OR
       "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -safe-mode

-> Firefox Safe Mode window will appear -> DON'T SELECT ANY OPTIONS, just click Continue in Safe Mode

Check and tell if its working.

Problem somehow resolved itself when user selected a picture to use as background, so a start in safe mode was never tried. I do not know why it happened, but it all happened around the event(s) of changing the background picture - first removing the picture caused firefox to fail, then selecting a pic caused firefox to work...odd I know and since it works the user is not interested in determining WHY it happened. So for now the problem is resolved.
