I've been having trouble with the screen acting like it's no longer selected, and I have to click on it to get anything to work again, but now that I've downloaded the latest version I also get a warning window about Scripts not working properly. I have to click continue before it'll do anything, then it'll still do the other thing again.
 Even with all this it's still faster/better than IE, but is there any way to make it work properly? |

Firefox can be a memory whore and try updating it to latest version

Uninstall all of your extensions, then add just the ones you know you use.
Some extensions have BAD memory leaks that make Firefox get really screwy after a half hour or so. |

My computer-fu is weak Brass.
I don't even know what you just said.  (I appreciate it though. I just don't know what it means or how to do it). |

Click on Tools | Extensions See what comes up in the window, if nothing is there, then I would suggest clicking "Get More Extensions" and downloading "NoScript", which lets you pick the sites you trust to allow javascript to run on. |

O.K., I did that but it's going to take me a bit to figure this out. I tried to reply and it went to the home page.
 Thanks for your help.

That will not help the memory leak is still there in the latest version... give Opera a try. |

Right click on the page, go to "no Script" (has an S icon), and allow ar15.com you can temporarly allow other sites (putfile.com, etc) to view a video, just by enabling the root site to see the vid. It keeps the other javascripts from linked sites from tracking your usage. |

Firefox is a buggy piece of shit. Nothing ever gets fixed because the fanboys refuse to admit that their precious browser has major flaws. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

The only problems I've had with Firefox are graphics going nuts making a whole page look out of whack. A quick ctrl+F5 sets everything right again.

No it ain't... Firefox has had more major security flaws discovered in each of the last 4 quarters than IE. They have known about the memory leak for well over a year and CANNOT fix it. |
