Firefox 24.0 - right click doesn't work (firebug 1.10.6?)

Hy all,

Straight to the point:

 I upgraded my old firefox to version 24.0. Then i installed new extensions, for saving images, e-mailing tabs, web measuring, colors and other stuff. After a few days, i observed that right click was not working. It was appearing, but not responding to any commands.
 Since i work in advertising and webdesig area, i always have installed firebug and its components. Ok. So, i tried one or two days to disable every add-on one by one, restarting mozilla firefox. But not firebug.


Well, i made a little research on g..gle (it doesn't deserve content seo :-), maybe if they'll give me a cent, hehe ).

After long threads on disable individual extensions installed or updatet lately, or other common things, i discovered that the only extension that i've been avoiding to disable, it was the one in question.

So, i've found this answer: right click is huge...

In a few words:

Huge or not huge, the context menu, it was not working.
I've tried to diminish the context menu options, but no result (this with a nice plugin to edit firefox context menu - firefox menu editor).
So, they've found that the error was from FIREBUG 1.10.6.
The problem for context menu functionality was from Firebug. It can be solved by disable it and enable it. But the safe one it was to just updating it.

They said that it was not updating, but in my case it worked just an update.

So, if you are a FIREBUG user, and have that problem, try to reinstall this addon or just update it.
From FIREBUG 1.10.6 to at least 1.11.2.

I will make a funny but accurate legend for every kind of user.
This is just a small guide to know how hard or easy it is to solve the problems (1 to 5 is enough to differentiate the difficulty level of users, 10 were to much, right?).
