Apr 02, 2008 8:10:37 I have been having a problem where I just can't load the message boards using fire fox. I don't know why, but it just wont work. I got to wizards.com, then click on donguons and dragons, then message boards and nothing happens. Also the Internet explorer doesn't seem to be loading well ether.

Can some one please tell me what the hell is going on?

Question the first: Then how did you post this?

Question the second: Perhaps the problem was in clicking on "donguons and dragons"? :P

Apr 02, 2008 11:32:42 I have been having the same issue. I just cleared cache, and all other private settings. Seems to be working fine, though it is a bit slower than normal.

Did yours work?

An update just came out, did you install it yet? Try clearing your cache... if that doesn't work, you can't always just reinstall firefox, maybe you did something to it? Don't have a lot of information to work on, so I can only take guesses

OK, pardon my computer ineptitude but how to you clear the cookies and cache for Fire fox please?

First: I said the posting was slow with IE, but it does still work :P

Second: I have a link to specific sections other than pushing that button, and it still dosn't work.

Apr 02, 2008 13:51:56 Have you considered simply switching over to http://www.opera.com/ ?

I did a bit back and am much happier. Although I rarely come across a sight that does not support it, and have to open it in IE.

-My schools website does not load in opera, and when I load in IE, Ie's built in popup blocker says that it is an unsecure sight and i should not go to it. I then have to click past the recomendation in order to enter. Our site is not well done, and not suprisingly, it does not support opera.

Apr 02, 2008 22:01:43 I just set my FF settings to never save my data, but I am mostly on a work computer and don't want my history known or shown, not to mention a nice little free utility called Privacy Eraser that cleans everything satisfactorily.

Apr 05, 2008 23:48:43 Possible Extension Conflicts?

For example, some web pages make extensive use of Java-script. If you're using No-Script and have white-listed such a page, it may not even load at all.
