Explain that in babytalk? Please? As far as I know, nothing should be blocking JavaScript in any way, except NoScript.
I don't know that much about Windows, but I'll try for Win7...

prefs.js is just a local file that stores your custom Fx settings
go to start -> all programs -> accessories -> command prompt
type
- cd AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
attrib /S
and look for files with "R" listed before their full path, particularly pay attention to what's listed for prefs.js

*probably* not relevant if the answer to Giorgio's question is "yes", but user.js would be in the profile directory (C:\Users\(YOUR_USERNAME)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\(whatever the one folder there is)), see the link re: lockpref file
barbaz wrote:Also, are you sure that there isn't some other program you're installing on your computers that's specifically blocking Firefox from reading or saving prefs.js?
if this, could be an antivirus or other security software, but I don't know enough about win to really explain this in "babytalk", sorry
