Firefox Won't Load

[dsf79]

Greetings all:

I am running SLED 10.2. Firefox 3.5 x86_64 upgraded through on-line updates but will not load. When I try to load from a terminal both as my user and as root I get:

Couldn't load XPCOM.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both firefox and xulrunner with no joy. Also tried renaming my .mozilla directory and the app directory after uninstalling. Still not joy.

I have searched on other forums but none of the suggestions have worked.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
