It's not really a question of removing the extensions. I use SeaMonkey
browser, so where I go in the program to customize it and select preferences
is sometimes different than in FF. But with either you can create a new
profile. When you do that you will be presented with the default set-up and
no user-added enhancements. If you still have your current problem with that
set-up, then the corruption is in the install directory and will be hard
(and probably inadvisable) to fix. If there is no problem you can then
install your extensions and themes one by one, and if want you can keep
testing between extension installations to verify things are still
copasetic.

mozilla.support.firefox is the best place to post for FF problems. They know
their stuff.

I removed as many extensions as possible leaving
just the bare necessities. I replaced the
older version of Adblock with Adblock Plus.

I'm wondering if the problem could be due to
the system being low on resources.

Extensions are great in theory but in practice the system is a little
unwieldy and out of control. Kind of reminds me of Microsoft and
their eternal cross platform compatibility headaches that defy a
solution until one OS is put out to pasture, although the folks at
Mozilla would never admit that.

If you are up to it, one thing you can do, which I find simpler than
detective work, is to create a new profile and install your
extensions from scratch one by one. There are certain files you can
just copy in to regain the original GUI but that may be where the
problem is so it's best to create it all anew, except for bookmarks.

The problem is that before too long you are likely to experience the
same problem you have now, or a parallel problem, often something
javascript related. It's like cutting the grass.

The Error Console shows a bunch of warnings like ...

Regarding Adblock Plus v0.7.5.5 ...

[1] Go into your Adblock Plus preferences (Tools / Adblock Plus /
Preferences) [2] Deselect "Check DIV Elements" from Adblock Options.
[3] Click "Done." Effective immediately, the scripting issue will
terminate.

My Adblock Plus installation does not have "Check DIV Elements"

What can be done to work around this?
