First of all, which problems are you experiencing? - most likely, it is
an extension that's to blame - try running firefox in safe mode, and see
if this alleviates the problems. If it does, try disabling all your
installed extensions, and in normal mode, reactivate them one at a time,
to identify the problematic extension.

If all else fails, assuming your current version is 2.0.0.11, the
previous version was 2.0.0.10, and you can simply run the installer
found here:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/re...202.0.0.10.exe
to revert - remember though to turn off automatic updates, or it will be
updated again automatically. (I would not recommend this approach)

Best regards, and merry Christmas.

And just to clarify - my link is pointing to the en-US windows version -
you can browse to any other version you might want here:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/

Please don't point people to the ftp server for releases.
ftp.mozilla.org is not mirrored, nor does it have a load balancing
system. The download URI for pikespeak should be:
