Do you have the McAfee Site Advisor installed. What you are describing can be caused by that add-on, uninstalling or disabling it will cause the back button to function normally.

Check to see if another add-on is causing this. For details of how to do that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

I have already done all of that. I opened Firefox 4 in safe mode, which I assume disables all the add-ons, and still had the problem.
