Default Firefox problem with forums
Searched and didn't find anything but yesterday Firefox started failing when accessing CF. IE works fine.

Anybody else got this issue? Two different computers, same problem.

No issues here with FF 3.6.10 on my desktop or my laptop. Must be an add-on that's causing the issue. Try disabling them all and access the forum. Then turn them back on 1 at a time till you find the culprit.

Any recent updates installed on both?

I also have 3.6.10 on my desktop and laptop and was using both yesterday, all was good. What was your issue?

You could also try "clear recent history" and choose "everything" for the time range, make sure cookies and cache are checked.

Tried disabling plugins and addins but that didn't fix it.

Cleared the cookies specific to CF and FF now works again.

Thanks all.

Does IE9 remember all my tabs and complete browsing sessions and windows and reload it like FF? If so I might consider it, otherwise I'll stick with FF.

I make sure that I run a cache cleaner with FF, I haven't had any issues with Win7 and FF. (CCleaner.com is free)
