Seems a bit extreme, this isn't Windows.  For sure, you quit Firefox and
make sure it's not running at all, after an update.  I've certainly seen
Firefox screw up if I tried to use it while it was still running during
an update.  But I've never had to reboot for it.

Depending on what updates, you may have to rerun ldconfig to get FF looking at 
the correct libraries. I have to do that after some updates.

Try refresh, that works for me when googleanalytics is slow.

write a bugreport for the updated packages
they *must* call ldconfig if they update libraries

IMHO it is a misdesign that every single package has to run ldconfig
for updates of many packages instead get this triggered at the end
of the yum-transaction or at least yum could do ldconfig *at the end*
of any transaction, but this is how things are working

Thank for the suggestion, but it does not help.
I even removed .mozilla .cache/mozilla/firefox whitout more success!
I also tried another user without more success.

May I should try an older version, like the last version 20, if I can
get it?

Thank.
