Upon launching Firefox 4, I get a Java Script Application pop-up window error message. The window notes: Type Error: Components, Classes [cid] is undefined.

Already checked to see if my Java was up to date and it is. Did not have this problem with the previous version of Firefox. How do I resolve this problem?
