Since last night I have not been able to use Firefox. A window opens but nothing happens. Firefox is not responding. I can't even click on the help menu to reset Firefox. I've updated it and that didn't help either. Each time I open it I have to force quit. Please help!

Could you try starting Firefox up in its Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features and some custom settings.

Hold down the Option key while starting Firefox. (Or if that doesn't seem to do anything, see this article: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode#Mac_OS_X)

A small dialog should appear, click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Reset)

Any difference?

Your personal data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox profile folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data when you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.
