It is possible that your Firefox installation is broken, so maybe do a clean reinstall.

Do a clean reinstall of the current Firefox release and delete the Firefox program folder before installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.

If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows Registry and settings in security software.

  • do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall the current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including personal data in profiles created by other Firefox versions

Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (64-bit Firefox) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (32-bit Firefox) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"

Your personal data like bookmarks is stored in the Firefox profile folder, so you won't lose personal data when you reinstall or update Firefox, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.

This may work; There is a way for you to remove that block. Load the web page. After, right-click on the viewer. From the Firefox option list, select Inspect Element. Then IMMANENTLY move the mouse off the screen. A sub-window should now open. One of the entries should be highlighted. Mouse on top of that entry. Now you should see a colored block on the viewer. Right-click on the entry. From the menu, select Delete Node.
