Computer Questions: FireFox and SystemMechanic

[southernlad]

When I download Firefox, I have a huge gray box that takes up the bottom inch of my Firefox screen. Even if I drag the window bigger, the gray box just sets at the bottom. At first I thought it was the status bar messed up, but it's not. The Status bar will set on top of the gray box.

Anybody able to help me with this issue?

Second Question: I love SystemMechanic, but I get tired of paying $40.00 everytime some upgrade comes out. Is there a free version of this that is better? I even lost my current version because I reinstalled it and now it tells my my sn is wrong.

Any help or any free software that does the same thing?

I am normally really careful but I have so much crap in there that it needs a good cleaning once in a while.
