Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.5
Hi
Am using Firefox 3.0.11, Shiretoko and 3.5.1 (the latter from Linux Mint repositories)
The problem i am facing is that some of the webpages / websites appear incomplete or not at all - what loads up is only some colored lines a few icons and no text (except what may be in the form of an icon). Some other wesbsites like bbcnews appear properly but the websites that offer email services appear with just lines and icons and some tiny images and no text like gmail, yahoo, rediffmail etc.
So am unable to use Firefox because am not sure what websites will load properlt and which will not.
The below is the result of my "apt-cache" to know where the firefox was sourced from etc.
ram@ram-laptop:~$ apt-cache show firefox-3.5

HI
Someone asked me are you sure the problem is with Firefox ?
Well I think Yes because i am using opera on the same system and opera works fine, in fact am doing all my network using opera.
