I have tried to reset Firefox to factory settings, but doesn't work. Tried to uninstall, didn't work. How do I reset my browser? Things like Facebook and Pandora do not work in my browser.

Hi there. I hope things are good. I have a question for you. Remember when I told you to rename the %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\ folder? Do you still have the old folders on you computer? I need you to open one of the files with a text editor, and post it's contents here. If you still have it.

Folder: C:\Users\==<user>==\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox.old

File: prefs.js

Also, scan your computer for malware. The people at Bugzilla thinks there might be an issue.
