Pre-caffeine I'm not clever enough to figure out what to do here.
First off, am I the only one experiencing this?
Second, what do???

You probably allowed Firefox to autoupdate.
The newer versions are not compatible with Norton - yet.
On the last update, I had to wait about two months before all; my stuff ran on Firefox. And I run very “”minimaliat.”

Mine’s working fine too. Because of the spelling of “behaviour”, it makes me wonder if this isn’t some sort of malware or virus. I’d run those first, then if the problem persists, maybe uninstall it and re-install it.

That last word should be “Minimalist” - as in not much stuff at all.

You probably have a corrupted file in your hard drive.
Probably worst case, uninstall and reinstall Firefox.

Two computers, both Firefoxes performing fine as usual.
Did you try it without add-ons?

Your profile is stored in %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
The error message seems to indicate a permissions issue with one or more of those folders. If no problem with the permissions seems apparent to you then try reinstalling Firefox.

While this specific error is probably unrelated, you should also not blindly trust Firefox (or any other browser):
According to a top-secret NSA presentation provided by the whistleblower Edward Snowden, one successful technique the NSA has developed involves exploiting the Tor browser bundle, a collection of programs designed to make it easy for people to install and use the software. The trick identifies Tor users on the Internet and then executes an attack against their Firefox web browser.
