Try uninstalling the java plugin. I suspect that's the plugin bailing out. Did you change your user agent at some point?
I ended up doing a fresh install, and now it works. I installed the latest java plugin from sun, so that may have been it. I'm not sure about the user agent ... I've disabled SELinux for now because I was having other problems with up2date, etc (reported elsewhere). But mozilla works now, so te bug can be closed. Thanks!
