Live.com sign-in page seems to load but body of page is blank. No place for username/password entry. Today, I cleared history + cookies, turned off flashplayer plugin and then the body of live.com signin is blank. Re-installed flashplugin. FF checked plugins and installed JAVA. Still a blank body of live.com sign-in. FF seems to work OK with other web sites. IE8 works fine with Live.com - I'm using IE8 to access my email.

Make sure that you do not block JavaScript because the input form is generated via JavaScript

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

I followed your directions and found an Extension "Add Lyrics 1.0" causing the problem. I disabled this extension. Now I must determine how to remove this extension.

Thanks a bunch for your prompt reply and guidance.
