<p>Well, the error message is already displayed when Firefox starts (with a blank page). We don't have to open any website to get the error message.

One time with the user's profile, one time also without to have a fresh profile created on first start. Both times we got the error again.
</p><p>Unfortunately, I screwed the original question's markup, so this list of things we already tried wasn't that easy to read. Sorry for that.
</p><p>To me it looks like there is something on that particular computer that interferes with Firefox. But Firefox doesn't tell what it is.
</p>I see.
Let’s do a full clean re-install;

If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package
manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it.

Look for, and remove any <strong>Mozilla</strong> or <strong>Firefox</strong> program folders.
Do not remove the <strong>Mozilla Thunderbird</strong> folder if there is one.

<p>Not really. All users have a roaming profile, which resides on a NAS and is mounted on login. So the profile on the second machine is the exact same profile that is used on the machine producing the error.

The machine is pretty naked. We also uninstalled Firefox, deleted all data and reinstalled it again just to get the error again when opening Firefox for the first time. So, if "Cookie" is some kind of extension, it couldn't have been installed at that time.
</p><p>Interestingly, the user homes are stored on a network drive mounted on login via SMB. But if this has something to do with the error?
</p><p>We have several of those machines that are more or less equal. I'll try to have the user use another machine to check whether this is related to the machine, the user's profile or the combination on both. Until now only one user complained about this problem, so I guess that is is somehow machine related. But I'll test this.

</p><p>Are you sure another application isn't trying to access this file, preventing Firefox from accessing it? We've had reports that "Cookie" is one application that can interfere.
