This looks like a mozilla or firefox error message. Do other users get
the same message? (if there are none, create one and check). If it's
just you, move your gnome config files out of the way (I think it's
.gnome2 and .gconf directories, but it's been awhile since I've used
gnome) and try again. Then move stuff back bit by bit to see what's
failing.

What happens when you recycle ?dm? (Cntl-Alt-Backspace or
'/etc/init.d/?dm restart) Any error messages in the logfiles?
