So, after removing all the add-ons (which didn't go) and still having
problems I decided to purge everything to do with Firefox and start from
scratch. Fat chance.
I removed my .mozilla directory in /home/wulfy. Nothing in /etc,
/usr/bin, /usr/lib or /usr/share.
I reinstall Firefox... I click on Tools/add-ons.. and there is a list
of all the add-ons I used to have waiting to be uninstalled when I
restart Firefox...
sigh Where is Firefox hiding the data? How can I start fresh? I'm
beginning to really hate this program...
Kubuntu Hardy up-to-date
What are the add-ons that you have listed? Were they installed via
apt-get, or through firefox itself? And are they uninstalled when you
restart Firefox?

That seems to have sorted itself... all the add-ons have gone. I
reinstalled a couple (Basics (in place of tab mix plus) and Sage Too)
and they seem to work. I can't change preferences. FF3 crashes in two
different ways on different occasions, one: it will close the program
just opening preferences; the other: it freezes as soon as I click on a
tab on the dialogue. It also freezes on some pages loading (I think
those that have flash content) and just shows a busy cursor. I have no
idea where to go next with this.
