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

I just downloaded Firefox v1.7.7 and added various extensions and add-ons and
now when I open the browesr page to either the firefox 1.7.7 homepage or any
other website only the top 1/3 of the screen shows a website then there is a
horizontal line going across the screen and the rest of the screen is white.

The top of the screen that shows the website also has a scroll bar to scroll
down but the area you can see is so small it doesn't even help.

I tried to uninstall some of the extensions with the extension uninstaller under
the Tools menu and it says I need to install the Extension Uninstaller API and
when I click to install it I get the following message:  "Script Error" and
it doesn't install and I can't uninstall anything.

I also tried uninstalling Firefox 1.7.7 alltogether from my computer and then I
tried to re-install it and all webpages still open the same way.

Please help !


Sincerely,

Dan Garfinkel

Go into safe mode ( http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode_%28Firefox%29 ) and
uninstall your extensions like that; one of them will be causing your problem.

Resolving invalid since this is an extensions issue.  If you figured out which
extensio it was, you can report the problem to the extension author.
