Create a New Profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

IF that New Profile works then you can recover your Bookmarks and Passwords from the Old Profile.

Awesome thats solved it :)

there is one other problem maybe you could help me with. ive had it for a quite a while.

The plugin container process always runs at 80-100% cpu all the time any idea how to calm it down?

-> Update All your Firefox Plugins

When Downloading Plugins Update setup files, Remove Checkmark from Downloading other Optional Softwares with your Plugins (e.g. Toolbars, McAfee, Google Chrome, etc.)

-> Restart Firefox

-> Troubleshooting Plugins

Check and tell if its working.
