I can't find the string "HAHAHAHAHAH" in the mozilla source. 
Is this coming from ubuntu ?

Comment 2

Does the issue still occur if you start Firefox in Safe Mode like this:
firefox -safe-mode -ProfileManager

Comment 3

[Pedro Bessa]

The string 'HAHAHA' doesn't appear in Open Web Apps Bundle nor Rainbooth nor Robots are People's extracted files.

I extracted the files to dirs inside a dir (crushes), then ran "find /sp/Downloads/crushes -type f -exec grep -l HAHAHA {} \;", then also tried 'HAHAHA'.

It doesn't happen in safe mode and profile manager.

Comment 5

[Pedro Bessa]

If I start Firefox using firefox -safe-mode -ProfileManager, the issue doesn't still occur.

Comment 6

[Pedro Bessa]

I don't know if this is coming from ubuntu.

When running without -safe-mode does the message occur before or after you have selected a profile in the profile manager?

Comment 8

[Pedro Bessa]

after I selected a profile

Then it sounds like the message comes from an extension. You may track it down by enabling (or disabling) the add-ons one by one until you find the one that issues the message.
