buggy firefox

Just upgraded firefox to 1.5 and all pages looks like shit, worked just fine with the version i had before.. IE has been like this a while too, heeeeeeeelp me 8-O

tried to update flash, shockwave and java but that didnt help..

oi O.o

hmm....tried uninstalling completly? delete all crap etc

Tho, since ur saying your IE has been like this for a while it might be something else. Dunno if both browsers use any common files, wouldnt think so

Both browsers are completely seperate

First idea i came up with was clear cache but then i saw IE had it too

Have you installed an internet security suite or firewall ? It might be something that blocks some content along the way.

Animoy: Tried to reinstall everything
razor: nothing like that installed

ummm...I'd like to buy a vowel? :dead:

It looks like you have something blocking background images. Make sure you have javascript enabled and are not using some sort of customized CSS settings. Make sure you have "From this site only" unchecked in web features, as often, larger sites will actually be hosting some images on a different domain.

ran ad-aware, spybot, microsoft anti-spyware, or anything like that? I doubt thats the problem, but *shrug* what extensions are you using?

No extensions installed atm and no spyware etc fond

Well, something is blocking images. I know you said "no" but you're SURE you're not using ZoneAlarm, norton, or any sort of firewall, hardware or otherwise? You have a completely direct pipe to the internet?

as said on IRC; firefox looks like this if you disabled colors for websites.
Options -> Content -> Colors -> check "allow pages to display their own colors, instead of my selection above"
