I have no clue about the underlying problem but you could make life a 
little less frustrating before you find a fix with

alias firefox '/bin/rm ~/wherever/you/get/to/compreg.dat; 
/usr/X11R6/bin/firefox'

and similar for thunderbird.

Syntax may vary according to which shell you run, and you'd want to put 
the aliases in a suitable file which was loaded every time you logged in.
