I did not point out initially was that my ~/.mozilla directory was a restore from a backup. And that back up was made *after* a disk malfunction and failed fsck attempts. My solution was to move my ~/.mozzila directory to a different name, and launch firefox, voila! I did find a good resource on-line for troubleshooting Firefox startup issues (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox). I went through every step, but no joy. An important file must have be corrupted during the crash and firefox refuses to start. Thanks for your assistance. -- Regards, Doug
