Ahh, the problem seems to be gone in a clean profile, so I may spend some time 
in the old profile disabling add-ons and plugins.  (I don't have that many, 
don't know if I have to restart after each -- maybe I'll disable them all, 
restart firefox, and then add the ones I really want back one at a time.

I don't recall doing anything special in the configuration, not sure I made any 
changes at all.  I did block cookies from some sites, I don't think that 
should have an effect.
