XP or vista?
Do this...go to your documentsettings folder and look for your username>appdata>mozilla

Delete that folder...I found out even if you uninstall mozilla it still keeps that folder. The above might not be 100% right but I think you can figure it out.

Remember how I had problems with java not working in firefox...I finally resolved it by deleting every application setting folder for mozilla on my drive for every user, including defualt user.

Shame, the same didn't work for tave.
