(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Straylight]

User-Agent:       Opera/8.0 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)
Build Identifier: Firefox 1.04

After starting firefox no content-tab is displayed (and therefore no content). The 
window-title changes to the correct page-title, traffic indicates the webpage gets 
loaded.
The only buttons accessible are the green "check-updates"-arrow and the pull-down-
arrow of the adress-bar.
If the update-button is clicked update-progress commences.
If the pull-down-arrow of the adress-bar is clicked an empty dropdown appears on the 
top left corner of firefox.
it is not possible to enter adresses into the addressbar.

If the error occurs it can be reproduced for some time, even after rebooting.

Every once in a while firefox starts up normally without this error.

Safe mode always works.

Please email me for screenshots.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Firefox. 

Actual Results:  
see details.

Expected Results:  
Displayed a webpage and/or set focus to adressbar.

This sounds like a corrupt profile issue, and can be better taken care of in the
the mozillazine forums or IRC.
