Hmm, I was under the impression that extensions for firefox were generally written in javascript? Some extensions might prove to be a little incompatible. I would start in safe mode. Remove all extensions and reinstall the latest copy of them again. Make sure when you do this that you have checked they are actually compatible with all OS and not just Windows and are for the correct version of your browser. If this still fails create a new profile and see if you can get that working. Remember to backup your bookmarks. :) Good Luck Chris _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
