I’ve been having those same problems with Firefox for at least 2 weeks. I think they started after the last Firefox update. I finally uninstalled it yesterday and have been using IE today.

Download it from the site. Reinstall it over what you have.

Does that install over ver. 2 or a separate folder?

The only problem I have with Firefox is loading video/live internet feeds from some sites. I use IE View when it starts to stall. I hope version 3 eliminates these problems.

I was tired of farting with it. Only 2 of my favorite websites would load and FR wasn’t one of them.

"dos the Chode gif show on your machine???"

I shows here just fine. ...3 beta 5 version, high speed connection. From what I'm seeing while accessing various sites (news, markets, etc.--even ad servers for Bloomberg), there might be some kind of an Internet-wide DNS problem happening.
