FIREFOX ISSUES FIXED - Working much better

[Master-Rebater]

I did a windows update early this eve and then could not get FIREFOX to work at all. I was going to try downoloading new version and started reading FAQ's- They mentioned how firewalls can inhibit FIREFOX - I went in and told NORTON FIREWALL to ALLOW ALWAYS - and browser started working.
Next I downloaded FIREFOX 1.5 ( had only 1.0 before) After installing - I came to WYD and found that the little kinks I had seem to have worked themselves out. I can now use QUICK LINKS in toolbar.
I am still have to stay in STANDARD EDIT MODE to be able to send pvt msgs.
Tried WYSIWYG EDIT MODE but still cannot send. ( not a big problem at all - just sharing info on how my firefox is working now.

*YAY* Gary! Thanks for sharing that info!!!

I will be doing our Vbulletin upgrade before the New Year. I am thinking that will clear up the rest of the quirks.

Woo HOO!! One step closer to perfection!

I downloaded and installed a Firefox extension called IE Tab. This extension lets you open webpages in Firefox with embedded IE, you can specify which websites to use this feature for. Now I can post without switching between Firefox and IE and so far everything works like a charm.

"IE Tab - an extension from Taiwan, features: Embedding Internet Explorer in tabs of Mozilla/Firefox."
