One factor could be the 'content' which the source page has to specify like content="text/html".

Hi Vivek.Wilfred,

it is being perfectly amended in "content" variable of http header. With the source code following header information is also being displayed.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Tue, 27 Sep 2011 20:01:09 GMT Server: IBM_HTTP_Server Cache-Control: max-age=0 Pragma: no-store X-Frame-Options: sameorigin Content-Type: text/html;charset=UTF-8 Content-Language: en-US Transfer-Encoding: chunked Connection: Keep-Alive

Thanks for your reply!

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
