MSE Forum bar not displaying correctly in Firefox

One for the techies...

I have Firefox at work (Windows 7) and the MSE forum displays perfectly.

However, on my home PC (Windows 7), the top tool bar (Main Site, Forum, User CP, etc...) is pushed out to the right as can be seen in the image below...

I removed Firefox completely and re-installed it (V3.6.13) but still have the same issue. (Work laptop running same version)

I know it's not a major issue, but it's driving me nuts :rotfl:

Any ideas what could be causing this ?

    How would I go about doing that ?

    Would that not have been done when I completely removed the install ? (And ran CCleaner to "clean" the registry)

    No

    Strange as it sounds, even uninstalling doesnt create a completely new profile. Registries etc are always left behind

    Heres how to create new ones etc -

    Mozbackup can make a new profile for you .. http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/

    first backup your old one .. just in case!
    Use Mozbackup to create a new one ..

    You can import the old one into the new and see if that fixes it as alienrik suggests .. or start afresh.

    No change :(

    Have deleted profile and then created a default one... Bar still shoved to the right :mad:

    Seems to be an issue with the layout starting before the menu bar...

    Not that I am aware of - Firefox default install with no add-ons. (Enable Java Script is enabled in Options)

    Tried to zoom in and out just in case it was that, but no difference :o
