Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

I've run: Norton Anti Virus, Webroot, Lava Soft Ad aware, Spy Bot Search N
Destroy & Trend Mirco to make sure my pc is virus free.

When the firefox browser is opened all the html links: file, tools, bookmarks,
etc are all in a scrambled text format. Then if you try to click on any of them,
the      drop downs are all black.     

I've uninstalled FireFox and clean the registery and reinstalled it to a new
path and it still occurs. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open firefox
2. open firefox
3. open firefox

Actual Results:  
same


I could submit a screen shot if someone contacts me.

Yes

I fixed it: I ran all ad ware and virus software in safe mode.
Than cleaned my registry.
Next I installed FF .093 version then updated it.
