One thing I suspect is that you may have built FF as a 64 bit binary on amd64, while the extensions you have downloaded and installed are 32 bit. Maybe this is not the case, but you might try removing any and all extensions and the .mozilla (or rename for temporary purposes) directory. Then rebuild FF clean with no extensions. Run it that way and see if the javascript troubles you're seeing go away. If not, it's likely something else. -Mike
