Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex prompted me about half an hour ago to do an upgrade. One of the packages to be upgraded was Firefox, to version 3.0.6. After the installation was finished, I was then prompted to restart Firefox, which I did...and now all Firefox shows is a blank gray screen -- no browsing window, no address bar, no toolbar...not even a menubar or statusbar. Nothing but a big gray blank space.
I've downloaded Epiphany for the time being and am using that (thank goodness Epiphany was available from the repos to bail me out here!). I also just tried starting Firefox from the terminal and didn't get any error messages, either. Does anyone know how to correct this or downgrade or something?
Thanx in advance,

EDIT -- this is a problem only when I'm logged in as myself. I just tried my wife's login and hers is OK. Am I supposed to delete my ".mozilla" folder or something?
