If I am on a page such a typekit.com and click on a link to open an additional window, such as the kit editor in typekit, a blank window opens, but the page never loads. Happens on any page with a link to open a new window.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.

  • Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
  • Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

In Firefox 4+ you can use one of these to start in Safe mode:

  • Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
  • Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

The problem was caused by Firebug 1.8. I removed Firebug 1.8 and tried 1.9 alpha but still had the same problem.

Do you know if there is a version of Firebug that works with Firefox 6.0?
