Weird Gmail problem on Mozilla Firefox 8.0?

[LazyLion]

OK, so this has happened to me on 4 different PC's now.

When I open my Gmail application page then click on an e-mail in the inbox it just shows me one truncated line instead of the entire message.
It's like it does not want to open the whole message window and there are no buttons to click on in the window.

The only way I have solved it so far is to completely uninstall Firefox and delete every Firefox folder off the PC, then I do a complete fresh installation.

Does anybody have any idea why this particular Firefox upgrade is doing this?

Please, no stupid fanboy comments about trying a different browser.
I just want to trouble shoot this, as I already have Firefox on numerous PCs.
I'm not going to move to a different browser.

Are you using adblock?

Yes, Adblock Plus!

Yes, Adblock Plus!

Try switching it off or updating it. Also any other script blockers running?

More than likely the problem,I noticed an issue this morning with the Gmail chat window,but it's possible you could have a similar issue with your reader windows

Open the Blockable items and check if any short rules like *ad4* are active and disable them

Updating the filters in adblock plus worked for me.

Go to Addons, select Adblock Plus.

Click on Options, click the top left menu (File?) and select Update Filters.
