(solved) user's firefox profile cannot be loaded


hi. iI run slackware 64 current. user cannot start neither firefox nor seamonkey: the error says "your firefox/seamonkey profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible". I have looked for a solution on google, altavista and read a lot of manual and readme pages but I did not find a proper solution. If I login as root I have no problem to run either firefox or any other browser. thanks

Sounds like the permissions (ownership) have somehow been changed for those configuration files. As root check them and change them accordingly.
