    That is totally strange I wonder if it is like maybe a Java script problem. Are you getting that the page loaded with errors. I have no clue maybe I should download Firefox and see if I would get the same error.

      Try clearing your cache. Maybe FF is assuming that these are already downloaded.

          That is just weird that clearing your cache fixed the problem. Oh well though, I'll use any browser but IE, and I hate the fact that to update my windows I have to use IE7 to get them. *Shaking Fist*

            Hi there paglamon

            Use an extension named FasterFox [if you do not have it already that is], it has an inbuilt Cache Cleaner. This should reduce the frequency of occurrence of your problem in future. Moreover Download and install CleanUp! from StevenGould.org, and run it from time to time.

            This type of problem occurs when you have hell lot of cookies in your PC. If you are interested, please let me know, I shall give you a list of free programs to limit those cookies.

              Thanks src2206 for your offer. I do have Fasterfox. I also have Cacheviewer installed as extension.I usually use it to view and remove cache from time to time.Probably I was a bit lazy over the last week.I also use CCleaner often. I will definitely need you often(after getting to know that you double up as a Security Consultant ).
