Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

Thanks Fred. I did what you said but safe mode didn`t work, so i tried refresh and it still works. When i did refresh it works after several tries. The refresh took off my home page so i selected my own home page and all is ok so far. Thanks a lot.
