Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I'm trying to view a web that contains java, but instead a java plugin, I can only see a grey square.

I tried deleting the plugin IcedTeaPlugin and the package java-jre6-plugin but instead of going better, everything has gone worse: (

I have reinstalled firefox and the bar would not update addresses as addresses were changing (eg. showing www.google.com when i was on yahoo website and the previous page visited was google). Also buttons for previous and next page don't displayed correctly . Not to mention that bookmarks menu appeared empty.

After creating a new profile with "firefox-ProfileManager", I reinstalled the package "java-jre6-plugin" and all is working properly, including java.

I saw this 2 errors if i use the old profile:

Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE) [nsIJSCID.getService]" nsresult: "0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: file:///usr/lib/firefox-3.0.10/components/nsBrowserGlue.js :: bg__initPlaces :: line 449" data: no]
Source File: file:///usr/lib/firefox-3.0.10/components/nsBrowserGlue.js
Line: 449

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception...

I kept the default profile files, if you need some to investigate, do not hesitate to ask.

Ps: Sorry for my bad english ;)
