Ok. I seem to use this space more than anyone. Technology just hates me!
Here's the thing: Whenever I click on some links in here, like deviantart, foxfire stops and gets stuck, and won't let me do a thing... It seems not to be an issue on IE, so is the browser the problem, or what?
EDIT: IE seems to have the same problem, just different links...
How is that possible? I'm cursed... ':lightningshock:'

Have you tried clearing your temp files (internet, as well as computer (Start --> Run --> type in %temp% and hit enter, select all, and delete them), then restart your computer)).

Are you using XP? I've had the same issue with some versions of Firefox, seems they didn't work with XP all that well, including the second to last update. The latest version works great tho, so if you haven't updated lately you might give that a try.

Actually my version of Firefox is the newest. First time using it, and for no longer than a week. I'll try clearing the temp. files!

You may need Java installed into your Firefox. Go to http://www.java.com and get the latest update. Also make sure it's turned on in your prefrences. When it's off for me the little buttons don't work for me either.

I already have the newest java for firefox... I downloaded it a few days after getting firefox itself, and I did that not too long ago.
I think I just have bad luck

Under "Options" "Web Features" is Java and Java Script enabled?

Weird. Maybe you have a selective pop-up blocker or something. ':p'

norton internet security can ruin internet using firefox.. Ie blocks too much legit stuff.

certain routers have protections inside..
your isp can be blocking things.

butI think its your isp failing or getting errors connecting...
since it happens on diferent computers.

I use ad-aware because norton causes more problems than it solves... Router...nah, don't think so.
My ISP may be the problem ':p'
