Sometimes if mozilla gets confused reading your ~/.mozilla files it will 
give up on them.  After that it uses the defaults that it has already 
picked up, but no others.  It doesn't re-write the file that caused 
confusion, so the problem will persist until you identify the faulty file 
and remove it or remove them all in frustration.

The same can happen if you upgrade your mozilla to a later version.

So much for backwards compatibility of the config files.
