Default Firefox changing system colors


I've been messing again and somehow screwed up Firefox, probably via
Prefs.js. Now whenever I envoke FF XP changes from the highest color
configuration to the lowest. How can this be? Do I have to re-install to
cure this problem?

Thanks for any help
Don

Hi Don,

You could try undoing the changes made to FF, then use System Restore to
restore the system to just before the problem occurred.

Hello again Bert,
I just did a System Restore and every thing is working as hoped. I'll
remember that but hope not to have to use it again. But it is nice to have
such tools at hand.
