Loaded Firefox 4, received error message components.classes(cid), now corrected through help pages. But Firefox Start Page only shows a Search bar, that doesn't operate, page does not carry any other information, presume it's not downloading correctly, any ideas??

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in Safe mode:

  • Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
  • Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)
