I can no longer change the style or color of fonts in emails, blogs, forums etc. I can change the font size and nothing else. Everything works when I am connected using explorer so it is a setting or update in firefox that is causing the problem. If I cut/copy and paste into a word document from a web site I still cannot make a change. If I copy from a word document into a web site the colors and fonts revert to some default setting. I have tried changing the setting in Options for the fonts and colors, they make changes but they don't solve the problem.

Hi,

Please check if this happens in a new profile. If it's okay, you can later copy the personal data from the old profile. Firefox stores your personal data and settings in another location separate from its files/folder. A new profile would have the default Firefox settings (Tools (Alt + T) > Options and about:config ) and usually would also be empty of any Extensions and themes (Appearance) in Tools > Add-ons) and their settings. Also, a new profile would have no previous stored website data/settings etc. (Tools > Clear Recent History).
