I verified that Modern Grey was 1.0PR compatible and instaled. I have removed Firefox, including all registry references and reinstalled - same issue. Is this Firefox's safe mode? It is useless. Since I am unable to see the menus, I have had to guess the vertical location of items in the menu. When opening the Extentions window (there appears to be no 'Theme' window), I get only a blank white box with three menu options at the bottom: Uninstall, Update, Options. I cannot use Firefox until this is resolved - great product, but it is very, very ill. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Tools->Themes->Modern Grey 2. Windows revert to behavior mentioned above. 3. Cannot break out to default theme. Actual Results: All menus are text, there is no scrollbar, and all submenus are black text on black background.

I've been using Firefox since v .7 and love it, yet this has never before happened.
a new profile will fix this <http://kb.mozillazine.org/index.phtml?title=Profile_Folder> Inability to switch to default theme in safe mode is bug 266637. The theme is probably actually incompatible with either firefox pr1 or with one of your extensions.

screenshot: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=154167 (from dupe) somebody should look into the theme to see if it is a theme bug of firefox's.

I'm getting no issues with either Pinball 0.9.9.2 or Gray Modern 0.6.1 (other than the fact that Gray Modern isn't fully updated for 1.0 yet) in Firefox 1.0. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0 (MOOX M3)
