I have been using FF 4 for several weeks without any issues, up until last night. Now it doesn't seem to want to load any images or any styles. When I open up a site, I get a list of the navigation links and then the content under that, all in default styles. I didn't do anything different than just opened up the browser. I have tried the restart with restoring defaults, but that didn't help anything.

Any ideas on what I can do to get it working again?

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: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.

  • Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
  • Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

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)

Did most of these steps before posting here.

Images and css has randomly started working again for majority of sites, just not all.
