The browser is the not the email provider that isn't something provided by the Browser. If you can't attached that would be more related to the security software is blocking any attachments.

I CAN send attachments. This problem is related to the firefox update. When I restore back to the previous version, everything works fine and as it should. The new update will not allow me to enter anything into the REPLY TEXT BOX.

Did you contact your ISP to ask them about the email issue as well? I can use my Browser for gmail and yahoo without issues.
