Name it something like Mozilla_backup. (Be sure to close Firefox and any other Mozilla product (like Thunderbird) that you may have open.) Then launch Firefox again. See if that helps.

My thinking is that there's a corrupt file in there that wasn't cleared out when you uninstalled/reinstalled. Firefox will recreate all the files in the Mozilla folder if it doesn't find one.
I did some research and it sounds like the cookie.txt file and cookies.sqlite were corrupted. I ended up doing a fresh install of FF. Not ideal, but it fixed the issue.

Thank you to those who offered actual help.

I'll now go enjoy my girl scout cookies. Neener.
