Jscher, I tried adding disqus.com, disquscdn.com, and eschaton.com to Settings, Antivirus, Exclusions in avast!, but to no avail. I also looked at the avast! Add-on (avast! Online Security 9.0.2006.53) in Firefox, and tried to disable it. I upgraded to Firefox 24.0 a few days ago. (At the same time, I also upgraded to the latest java.) I have a Dell laptop running Windows XP. After I upgraded, Disqus comment boxes (and some others) no longer appear in my browser. And I don't mean fail to load, that's an old Disqus problem (occasionally). They flat out do not appear. As a result, I've gone back to using Chrome, which shows them just fine. I like Firefox better than Chrome, but if I can't see comments on my usual sites, it's dead to me. I upgraded to Firefox 24.0 a few days ago. (At the same time, I also upgraded to the latest java.)

I don't have XP handy (I can find an old laptop at some point, but not immediately). To see whether the upgrade might conflict with one of your add-ons, could you try the site Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].

Thanks, people. I don't yet have an answer.but I do have a culprit. My dad's computer here is also running Windows XP. So I updated it to Firefox 25, and disqus worked fine. What's different? I have updated java on my laptop, updated to the newest Avast antivirus program, I have Adblock Edge (that was my original suspicion, but messing around with it improved nothing), and I have a screengrab add-on I use a lot. So the next thing I did on my dad's pc is update Avast. Bang, disqus is gone.just like on my laptop. Thanks, people. I don't yet have an answer.but I do have a culprit.
