Creating a new profile solves the problem. However, something is very
wrong with the old profile. For example exiting iceweasel does not
give an option to store the current open tabs. The following files
differ.

Binary files: cert8.db, cookies.sqlite, downloads.sqlite, formhistory.sqlite, 
key3.db, OfflineCache/index.sqlite, permissions.sqlite, places.sqlite,
search.sqlite, secmod.db, signons.sqlite, urlclassifier3.sqlite,
XPC.mfasl, XUL.mfasl

Text files: bookmarks.html, bookmarkbackups/*,
chrome/userChrome-example.css, extensions.rdf, localstore.rdf,
mimeTypes.rdf, pluginreg.dat, prefs.js, search.rdf,
urlclassifierkey3.txt

The only file containing the word color is localstore.rdf:
In the problematic profile:
...
<RDF:Description
RDF:about="chrome://browser/content/preferences/colors.xul">
+    <NC:persist
RDF:resource="chrome://browser/content/preferences/colors.xul#ColorsDialog"/>
<RDF:Description
RDF:about="chrome://browser/content/preferences/colors.xul#ColorsDialog"
user_pref("browser.display.use_system_colors", true);
user_pref("browser.visited_color", "#660000");
...

Which ones can be deleted (and recreated), which ones are suspicious,
etc?
