Been using firefox for awhile and i've started to notice a problem.
When either on my main rig or on my dads internet rig, I connect to the net (yes, i do have dail up :D) and type in an address (usually forums.hexus.net) and it waits, and then says "forums.hexus.net could not be resolved" and nothing happens.
I close down Firefox, open up IE type in said address and it loads. I got into FF again, type in said address and all is fine :crazy:
Help would be appreciated :)
Proxy settings?
I get that sometimes, as much as I like Firefox I seem to be increasingly switching back to IE just to get some sites to work properly.
Biggest irritant to me is when i click on a URL in firefox -- nothing happens, I have to right click on the url and select 'open in new window'
I have ZA but not any proxys. I don't really think ZA would be the problem as FF is cleared for comms to the net through it.Quote:

I never get this problem... and I don't have a software firewall.
I never get that problem and I do run a software firewall. Only problem I have had with Firefox so far is that my local Councils website does not support it for taking online payments, so that's the only thing I have to use IE for at the moment.
Skii mate - click with the mousewheel to open an URL... and to save your sanity - get the tabbrowser plugin, and set it to open a new tab on a left click :)Quote:
