In cases where odd and unusual results appear for common tasks like this, the simple way to determine if the problem is caused by something Firebug can fix is to install Firebug alone in a new profile. This ensures that the effect is entirely caused by the Firefox install and Firebug install, rather than other extensions or settings.

But what if the problem is not solvable by either party?
