Weird Firefox Issues

by Jason Bean on December 12th, 2007

firefox-problem Not too long ago I switched back to Firefox from IE7. I enjoy having some of the extensions I used back in action and overall I’m happy. IE7 has been giving me some weird issues lately.

I go to fire up Firefox this evening though and my screen is looking weird. There’s a huge blank space of gray at the bottom of the screen right below the status bar. It reminds me of when you resize your task bar in Windows, but I can’t resize this at all.

If you’ll notice the screen shot, there’s also a weird yellow bracket on the far left side of the gray space.

I also just noticed that there’s a Flash loading animation in the top-right corner as shown below.

What do you think? Any ideas? Should I unload all my extensions and see if that fixes it? Has anyone else seen this before?

Let me know if you’ve got a fix.

    the little logo is normal, thats the loading logo like IE has the windows flag..

    about the big space,
    check ur addons / extensions.. there might be an addon in the wrong location causing it to over expand the bottem..
