Seems you are using a faked User Agent. 
User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET
CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.30)

If you look like IE, you get served like IE, so don't mind if pages with IE-specific Jscript & IE-specific HTML don't work in Firefox using standard HTML and standard Javascript. An IE-Useragent will crash Firefox if you are visiting pages using JAVA.

Does your login succeed if you don't masquerade as Internet Explorer?
Can you copy and paste some of the Javascript ERROR messages over here?
What extensions are you using?

Try using the old interface: https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=1
Does that work?

Not sure what was the issue, I tried in other laptop with the same version of Firefox it worked then I deleted the cookies, history and temp files , then it worked. Thanks. So looks like something to do with browser's(Firefox's)  cookie etc -:)
