Yaron mentioned on Mozilla-IL that you have some problem accessing the Private Browsing mode. This might be also relevant to this issue as well.

This is a weird edge case on Windows XP systems with a certain runtime library. Developers are working on a fix for 10. In the meantime, I think a Windows update for .NET (something along those lines) will have the updated libraries and fix this problem (you may need to reinstall Firefox after updating windows).

Thank you.

Do you know whether Automatic Update (not Windows update) would solve the problem?

I realy appreciate your help.
