If me. I'd rename the hidden folder .mozilla in /home to .mozilla.old

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidde..._folders#Linux

Code:

$ locate .mozilla
/home/harry/.mozilla

Code:

$ ls -a
<snip>
Backups         Desktop           .gtkrc           .mozilla        .thumbnails
<snip>

Making sure Firefox is closed while doing this. Then restart firefox so it makes me a fresh new .mozilla folder.

welcome to LQ.
there's not nearly enough information in your question.
please read LQ's posting guide lines and/or the first link in my signature.
also, i have no idea what "showe me zombie status" means.
