Hi,


Firebug seems to have stopped working on my Wintel computer running Windows
XP Pro x64 SP3, Firefox 3.6.8, and Firebug 1.5.4. Here are the symptoms.


The plug-in seems to install properly, and the bug icon shows up in the
status bar. The icon, however, is all gray, not the colorful little critter
I see on other systems.


Left-clicking on the bug icon has no effect, but right-clicking brings up
the context menu. Selecting a toggle option, like firebug.menu.Enable All
Panels, has no discernible effect.


Selecting "Open Firebug in New Window" works, sort of. A new window opens,
but it only has Console and HTML tabs. When I close this window and go back
to the original, left-clicking on the bug suddenly has an effect. It opens
the bottom Firebug pane, only the pane has no tabs at all. I'm obviously in
the Console tab, because I do see the >>> on the bottom for immediate input
and the pause button in the upper left. Opening and closing the bottom pane
repeatedly does not change this behavior.


I'm lost as to what can be causing this. I have the Add-on Collector plug-in
installed on my system, and it synchronizes with the other systems I use.
Firebug works great on my home computer (a 32-bit Wintel XP Pro) and my
laptop (a white MacBook), so I don't think the problem is with other
plug-ins. Just to be sure, I set up a new Firefox profile and installed only
Firebug. One or two other things, like something to do with Microsoft's .Net
framework, also installed, but I did not initiate any installs but
Firebug's. Despite this, I got the exact same behavior with the new profile
as with the old.


There's probably something simple that I'm overlooking, and any help would
be greatly appreciated.


Thanks.
