I do have my flash turned of...I wonder if that has any effect.

So do I.

 

I worked with Elton to see about a fix and nothing made a difference. Turned off all the add-ons/extensions/whatever and the behavior persisted. IE is unaffected. I only use those two browsers so can't say which others might have the same problem but it does seem limited to FF and to only a very few of us.

its def 3.6 and above ,everythings fine on my backup crud win98se machine that uses an older version

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

I used to be a dedicated Firefox man. I think I can remember persuading chesters to switch from Netscape Navigator to Forefox a while back. About 9 months ago I decided to give Chrome a try, just to kick the wheels as it were and I never went back to Firefox. I still have Firefox installed and up to date (3.6.13 at the moment) but I can't remember the last time I used Firefox in anger. It is so pedestrian compared to Chrome and Chrome's minimalist look appeals to me.

The problem isn't what people don't know, it's what they know that just ain't so.

yes software designers all seem to get far above their station ,you did tempt me over from netscape when V8? came out and became a bloated slow piece of crap ,and then firefox was a streamline terrier of a fox but now alas the software designers have overfed this lean pedigree of a animal making it a slow and snappy version itself.

why cant they just leave things alone ? ,you can have safety updates but we hardly use the whistles never mind the bells!!!!!!

 

ofcourse once Chrome is the top dog in the pack it will be overfed and start its downward slide through the pack

just installed opera but i really hate change

seems ok ....yukhorrid i cannot abide tabs i like minimal everything

I used to have a soft spot for Opera, I even bought it back in the days when it was not free but I can't abide it any more.

Another Chrome fan.

Never use Firefox anymore although it is still on my computer
