Opening Firebug stops javascript from running

I have noticed with the latest level of firefox(33.1)/firebug (2.0.6), my Javascript just stops.

The console doesn't report any errors, there is no sign of any problems. Just when I click on clickable items, there is no action. By closing firebug, the Javascript works again.

This does not happen for Chrome(open with Development tools) or Opera (open with Dragonfly). I have tried a couple of different websites with the same results.

Is this a firebug bug? Or am I missing a setting somewhere?

I have the following other plug-ins with firefox: fireQuery (1.41), HTML Validator (0.9.5.8) Pocket (3.0.5) View source Char (3.05)

Apparently, this is related to the combination of Firefox v. 33.1, in combination with fireQuery v. 1.41. There is more on this issue here.

This is a bug, with the interaction between fireQuery and Firefox.

This became an issue when Firefox went from v. 32 to v. 33.

The only solution is to disable fireQuery and restart Firefox. Or, debug with Chrome, Safari, Opera or even (gasp) Internet Explorer.
