G'day folks,

I'm giving FF another try and it actually worked reasonably well for 9 days.....

I have in the last 2 days tried to get to the WoW homepage but all I get is this:

and it goes on and on and on and on and on...........

Sooooo, what's going on all you FF aficionados?

Looks like FF is going to the scrapheap again....

Cheers :hello:

Try going to that page and pressing F5.

There may have been a transient server problem, and Firefox has cached this wrong version of the page. F5 reloads the page from the Web, ignoring the cached version.

Shift F5 does a force refresh/redownload which may help as well.

Nope didn't work.

Rebooted (systems been up for 17 days), cleared cache, history, cookies, etc. Reloaded page - - - - - nothing, same crap.

Any other ideas?

Cheers :hello:

Just checked the Mozillazine Knowledge base, it says Ctrl+F5 - oh, well, clearing the cache should have done it if that was the problem. Firewall issue, maybe?

Ctrl+F5 = nothing

Firewall = nothing, IE and O9 both show the site perfectly....

Could it be an add-on issue? I've got

• AutoSlideshow
  
• DOM Inspector
  
• Internote
  
• Secure Login
  
• Tab Mix Plus (enabled)
  
• Tabbrowser Preferences (disabled)
  

The reason I've got the two tab browser add-ons is because Tabbrowser was giving me some grief.

Apart from the above the only other change I've made is a new skin -> Blue Ice

So, any more ideas?

Cheers :hello:

See if the problem occurs in Firefox Safe Mode - there should be a link in your Start menu to launch the browser in Safe Mode, if not, see: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode . It's a troubleshooting mode that disables extensions and installed themes, so if the problem doesn't occur then, it's probably an extension problem (though, occasionally, just running once in Safe Mode fixes things - no one knows why).

I would go ahead and uninstall Tabbrowser Preferences - sometimes just disabling an extension isn't enough to avoid conflicts. Having two tab extensions is a recipe for trouble, and Tab Mix Plus is by far the superior extension of the two.

You can get rid of Tab Browser Prefs. Everything that extension has can be found in Tab Mix Plus (to my knowledge).

Did as suggested, removed Tab Browser Prefs, removed theme, loaded in 'Safe Mode' and ......... Nada.

Scoured the forums/knowledge bases and found nix, time to remove FF me thinks unless someone can suggest a possible solution.

Cheers :hello:

try making a new profile?

http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/profile

try that, if it works enable all the extensions again, and try again..

if that works there's probably something corrupt in your last profile.

if it bugs out again, theres a problem with one of the extensions.

you can migrate your settings over if it works and hopefully it'll work like normal.

Okay, used a new profile, no extensions and ....... nada.

Time to scrap FF?

Cheers :hello:

It's okay all you FF gurus........ figured it out myself

No-one suggested reloading it under a different directory, did they?

Guess what??? Works fine.....

Sooooooooooo, if you need help with FF, don't ask THEM, ask me, I know.........

Cheers :nyah:
