After reading the Tips & Tricks section on Mozilla Firefox, I tried to tweak Mozilla but after that Mozilla refuses to start.

When I click on the icon 2 start Mozilla, a windows pops-up and the following is written:-

<window id="main-window"
^

I can't understand. I even tried reinstalling mozilla but 2 no avail.

Please help.

Thanks in advance

maybe it cud be bcos ur User Profile is screwed up.
uninstall Firefox, and then delete the Firefox Installation folder, the go to C:\Documents and Settings\<Username>\Application Data\Mozilla\ and delete the folder named Firefox

then Run>regedit

delete these entries:
Code: 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3  
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3

after deleting these keys, reinstall Firefox, ur problem may be solved
NOTE: i'm assuming u have Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3 installed

Hope this helps :)

zeeshan, it helps if u can tell what tweaks you applied. You may need to undo those.
and secondly, i suggest you upgrade your firefox version to 0.9.3

Also, it helps if u keep your post title meaningful and not lengthy gibberish.

I was changing the words " MOZILLA FIREFOX " in the wndow title when this error occured.

I opened the file brand.dtd in notepad and changed the word "mozilla firefox" 2 "Zeeshan Firefox"

Please help

Search the registry for any key, Value etc & delete them. (Editing Registry may be Deadly for UR system)
Uninstall Mozilla & delete installation folder.
Try Opera Web Browser !

i hitnk u shoul use OPERA or MY IE.
Firefox is god but view is not so good
MY IE is based on IE

ok. u can delete the regidtry folders named MOZILLA from regedit.
so every key will be deleted
next time when u uninstall any soft then uninstall every file.clicking on "yes to all"
