I use Firefox for all my browsing apart from when I come to this forum...then I have to use IE so that I can use the Mod tools, smilies etc.

Soooooo anyone with a fix for that?

clearing cache usually fixes it.

mod functions are fine on another forum that I mod
but that's an IPB forum, if that means anything
and smilies work fine for me here w/FF
maybe you need to tweak some settings?

I forgot to add, you can't play music videos at yahoo.launch.com on Firefox either, not to mention any other kinds of streamed, embedded videos.

well i tried firefox today and it was a disaster......didnt like it from the start so uninstalled and my pc went potty......folder browsing was a mess etc. Ended up with a system restore.

Sara, fkd is right, it shouldn't a prob, unless there's something radicaly different with VB.

And orcutt, I can't even name the last time I had any probs with ff not reaching a site, and what it doesn't play through a plugin I can dl and run anyway.

I think I've needed to open one single site in IE these last few months (when on one of the operating systems I have ff installed), and that was to play an embedded sound (maybe there was a prob with some flash game too, can't remember), and that was due to crappy programing on the sitemaker's part.



And I've never had it screw with the browsing of my folders either.

Most likely that was due to something else, system restore is usually a sure way to screw up your OS, though.

Well, I cleared my cache but it still won't work properly..

Have you tryed reinstalling ?


@sara , just guessing here but do you have adblock inabled ? I can't post smilies unless I disable adblock ! Don't know why either, because some times it works sometimes not.
