If you say you've completely deleted your .mozilla directory and FF still won't work with a clean profile, then I doubt this will work, but try this anyways:

Code: Select all

firefox -safe-mode

If you are running it from a menu shortcut then try running it from a terminal instead. If that works then delete the shortcut and recreate it. That worked for me when I had this happen.

Have you been trying out Firefox 4? That is what caused it to happen in my case. I first had to remove FF4 and then redo the menu shortcuts to get FF3 back again.
