Firefox won't display web pages fully (no UI), but other browsers will (and firefox private window works too)
Hi,
I was trying to play a video on facebook, but after a second, the video wouldnt play anymore, and upon refreshing the page, it won't display UI for any website (see attached images of facebook and youtube pages). other browsers do work, and starting firefox in private mode works fine too. I have tried deleting all history and cookies, disabling Avira, scanning for a malware, nothing seems to work.
anyone has an idea of what the issue might be?
Thanks in advance :)

Looks like AdBlock Plus is the source. i'm not ready to give up on an adblocker though...

Most content blocking add-ons have a toolbar button that lets you make page-specific or site-specific exceptions as the need arises. Can you do that with ABP's button?
If you use Adblock Plus then you can consider uBlock Origin as a replacement to see if that works better (lower memory footprint).
Note that you can set whether an extension works in PB mode or is disabled in PB mode via its options page (about:addons).
