2009-08-21 00:35:29 Firefox problems

I've been using Firefox for a couple of years now and I just love it.
But recently (last 3-5 weeks) a lot of sites don't show up normally any more and I'm having problems with some sites and watching some videos (like quicktime) online...

The weird thing is all my stuff is up-to-date so I have no clue where this is coming from.. It almost seems like some sites don't support firefox any more or something...

Does any one have similar issues?

I don't, and I've been using it forever.

Not at all...are you using a beta version or something? I use 3.5 at home and have no issues.

Working fine here too, maybe it's some plugin / add on problem?

Try and do a fresh install of Firefox. That might resolve any issues you have.

3.5 has been a shitty release if you ask me. It's supposedly twice as fast but I get half second stalls while loading pages constantly.

I've been noticing issues with the rendering of some sites as well. It happens on one of my favorite sites Mangahelpers.com

If you attempt to quote a person or reply directly to a particular post, the site rendering is all terrible. It doesn't happen all the time, and you can go weeks or months without it happening, but it happens.

yes, Firefox sucks right now. I've been using IE a lot lately.

Found out you could convert the Easy List from Adblocker Plus to XML format. Import that into IE's InPrivate thinamajig and you got Ad blocker for IE.
Only thing that sucks is you have to modify the list manually. UGH

Anyway, it helps ease the transition.

IE... still won't go there!

Opera, Chrome.. you have other options!

IE8 is quite awesome once you start figuring out what it can do.

I agree though, Opera is the biz. I just don't like installing lots of stuff on my comp.
