HELP! A Firefox question

Ok, so somehow I have f*cked up firefox, and now instead of it opening popup type windows normal sized (like comment windows), they all open up narrow and unresizable.

I figured out how to make it allow me to manually resize the too-small windows, thanks to Mozilla, but I have no idea how to make it work right in the first place. I would prefer not to have to resize the stoopid things every time they open.

This only happens in MY Firefox profile, not my husband's or the dummy one I set up in the process of troubleshooting.

Any ideas? I know many of you are much bigger computer geeks than I am....

CTG, have you installed any extensions recently? In particular, the 'noscript' extension?

Well, now it seems to have fixed itself.

No clue. No frigging clue.

CTG, it sounds like something was interfering with the way the browser was processing Javascript (which is what controls the popup size).

If it's fixed itself, just sacrifice a can of Jolt to the Glitch Gods and hope for the best.
