i had to re download Firefox and after i did i could no longer see other languages, special characters, or symbols. I see a box with numbers in them but i have everything the same as it was before. All my add-ons and toolbars are the same was they was before but i can't see them.

Try to disable hardware acceleration.

You can try to disable the website fonts and if that still doesn't work then try some different default fonts like Verdana or Arial.
