Unusual one this; Here are the symptoms; 1. One start up - it states "firefox is not your default browser, do you wish to make it etc. This happens on each restart. 2. My home page - iGoogle doesn't display - The iGoogle theme shows but nothing else- Can't access gmail unless I disable labs.# 3. Facebook page doesn't display. 4. Certain site don't display correctly. Have system restored/ reloaded firefox and disabled add-ons on start up. Nothing changes

Hi,

Please try a Ctrl + F5 refresh when on an affected page. This helps to bring in the page afresh.
