When click on the Firefox web browser icon on my Desktop it acts like its going to open ( little hourglass shows up for a second), but then nothing happens. I've even tried opening safe mode. Same thing. Whats going on?? I've got it to open (just) once before, but its been doing this since I downloaded it.

One of your add-ons might be the culprit. Try running Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode. If that solves the problem, see Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and possibly Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems

If that does not solve the problem, a new profile Then, Recover your data from the old profile. See http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile
