Is this you who posted the following message in the "wrong" support 
forum?:

There's much more traffic and expertise at Mozillazine; the best forum 
for help is the FF Support forum 
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=38

In Mozillazine's Firefox General forum was a topic that confirmed my 
suspicion that your problem is caused by Juno, not Firefox, and that the 
solution is to contact Juno's help center or to use IE for Juno
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=428707

But a much faster solution (2 minutes) is to get the IE View add-on, 
which is handy for other incorrectly programed sites too, though they're 
much rarer these days mostly thanks to Firefox's popularity and a bit 
thanks to other standards-compliant browsers.

Do you use only Juno's webmail or is Juno also your ISP? 
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Default_browser indicates that Juno may be 
trying to launch IE when you try to use Firefox. Do you also have 
connection problems like this guy?:

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
