Firefox only opens - get error message "this operation has been cancalled due to restrictions in effect on this account... »

I can't open firefox - everytime I try I get the above error message. It started after no apparent change or updates to my system, just a normal life stops. I tried to change the .htm, .html etc. register file names and reinstall as suggested, but it does not work. The only way I can open firefox after I reinstalled and it automatically launches a browser.

I can open firefox in a new user account that suggests something has changed in the account that I usually use, but I have no idea what since I didn't do myself any changes and you see nothing that suggests that it blocks firefox to open. I ran a virus scan and it is to come clean.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I would be very grateful for help.

Thank you.

Thank you both for your responses. I had tried all possible ways of opening firefox, including the direct use of firefox.exe and had also tried the suggestions in the link above, but had previously worked.

Having lived every suggestion I could find about the problem I'm afraid, I gave up looking and did a system restore that solved the problem!
