I rely on Firebug as a Firefox add-in and was seriously dismayed when I installed Firefox 50 to find that Firebug had stopped working. I believe that this is because from version 50 Firefox is multi-process.
Anyway I found a little work-around that gets Firebug working again. Install Firequery after you upgrade to Firefox 50 and Firebug will start working again. Simple!

Looks like even with this work-around the script and net tabs do not work. Also looks like FireBug won't be updated to be multi-process aware as its too big a task.

Looks like its down to the not so good Fire Fox Dev Tools!
