| Been using it for a few days now. Like it but, it sometimes has a problem when I try and go somewhere. It will tell me the website can't be found. I know it is there, just seems quirky. Sometimes I try again and it works. Anyone else have this problem? |
First time I used Firefox it did that for a few weeks. I uninstalled it. Then reinstalled it and have no problems now. |

Huh, the only time I have had problems with "page not found", it has affected everything that uses the internet--Mozilla, IE, ping, tracert, etc. Still using the same bookmark file I've been using for years, as imported and exported and changed. Neither IE nor Netscape nor Mozilla/Firefox have ever mangled it. Jim |
Not a page not found... It is an internal 'Alert' from within Firefox asking me to check the spelling. |
I came home friday and when I started Firefox it wanted start a new profile.... all my stuff was gone ! I looked around on their homepage and found that it had a glitch. I don't remember the Exact directions, but your bookmarks are still there if you didn't delete anything. Close firefox, go to services and make sure firefox isn't running. Do Start>Run> type in firefox.exe(space)-p>enter. When the window opens up select the default user (or whatever name you put on the profile when you originally set it up. Fixed mine,everything back to normal.... YMMV |
Thanks, I'll that a try.

I had that problem too. It was a problem with my cable. Have your ISP check it out for you. You should probably run a tracert. If you get any *s, it's your ISPs problem. Make them check it out and fix things until it goes away. It took my cable Co. 2 visits to get my problem cleared up. They had to replace some of their hardware. |

No way I can go back to IE now that I have experienced Firefox. Firefox does sometimes crash on my when I push it hard (3-4 windows, 10-20 tabs in each window including lots of graphics) for days at a time on my relatively under-powered machine. Otherwise it is great and I love fast, tabbed browsing. GunLvr |
