PHP Upgrade breaks WP

    I just upgraded my php installation from 5.2.9 to 5.3.3-7. This has caused four different WordPress installations to fail. Two of the blogs are version 3.0.5, one is at 3.0.2 and one is at 3.0.1.

    None of the blogs can be managed or logged into. Two of the blogs will show some data, but I am not sure if it is being generated or if it is from a server cache.

    If I click on /wp-login.php I get a popup box saying “You have chosen to open wp-login.php which is a PHP file from http://www.example.com What should Firefox do with this file?” I am then given the option to open the file or save it. If I save the file it is 0 bytes in length.

    If I go to http://www.example.com/wp-admin/ I get a blank page with no content. If I navigate to http://www.example.com/wp-admin/plugins.php I get the Firefox popup like I do on the wp-login.php link.

    Other php applications are working, including a Drupal installation.
    What am I missing on my PHP configuration? Are there specific changes in my .htaccess that I should try?

    Thanks!
