Firefox 2.0.0.2

[airIam2worship]

Hmmmmm .....  sounds like a spinoff of the Twilight Zone. Instead of controlling your TV it's controlling your computer.

  It's more like the Bill Gates Zone. Brother Tom is right he is trying to control everyone's computer.

Firefox has a new update 2.0.0.3, I downloaded it yesterday.

Or perhaps it's more like the Outer Limits ......


"There is nothing wrong with your computer. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are now controlling the transmission. We control the horizontal and the vertical. We can deluge you with a thousand files or expand one file to complete chaos - and beyond. We can shape your vision to anything our imagination can conceive. For your complete lifetime we will control all that you see and hear. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the deepest inner mind to... The Outer Limits. Bill Gates Land. Please stand by."

I tried out IE 7 before it was released and have kept it updated and had no problems with my computer. I usually use Firefox, however, as I like it better.

I have noticed that with the continual Windows updates lately my computer is getting more unstable - I have occasional problems with Outlook Express crashing.

Will say I have NEVER been able to get Firefox to run animated GIF's. In some cases it won't even display static images, such as Ebay's main page.

I have never had a problem with Fire Fox loading any images of any sort. You might want to check Options under the Tools. Click on Content and then check to insure "Load Images Automatically" is checked and then insure there are no Exceptions listed for it as a "block". I do have a few there but I have them as an "allow".

[Rhys]

Those are all O.K.
It does load images, just not some and animated gif's aren't animated.
May be you have a fast connection - I have a slow dial up.

[Soldier4Christ]

There is that. I have cable internet. It is supposed to be 10 megs download but most of the time it operates at 1 to 2 megs. Still faster than dial up so that may have something to do with it.

I've had all kinds of nightmares with my computer, and many of them are still going. Some of the computer works now and some of it doesn't. I really don't know what to think. All kinds of little things are broken, even in simple settings like the forum. As an example, my spell-checker says that everything is wrong.   

I'll just have to see what happens next. YES - it is a trip into the twilight zone. I'm sure that I could have made some mistakes and be partly responsible for a few problems, but I really don't think much of this is operator error.

Love In Christ,

The verse in your last post is very fitting right now brother.

Brother Rhys, I have firefox too and my animated gif's  aren't animated either 

[Joey]

Ever since I downloaded firefox 2.0.0.2 I can't see any of the animations here in the forum. Any suggestions?

Try clearing the Cache

[Joey]

I'll do some research on that. In the meantime maybe someone else on here knows of a good free one.

Unless you have a problem with your registry, i would recommend you leave it well alone, unless you know what you are doing. Just one mistake and it will mess your whole system up. There really is not any need to clean the registry as it makes no difference to the running of your PC.

[Soldier4Christ]

For those having problems with animations on FireFox there is a help page on Mozilla for this:

That is the reason I use a program specifically designed for that purpose. I have numerous occasions where I had a system crash caused because of problems in the registry. The system trying to access something that the registry says is there and it isn't. A sluggish system can also be caused by this. With a program that is designed specifically for cleaning the registry, errors are limited and a good registry cleaner will have a restore function built into it in case there is a problem caused from the cleaning.

Joey this is weird if I use IE I can see the animations, if I use Mozilla I can't. I am going to have my husband look at it and fix it for me. He's an IT and I know he's going to tell me I don't need both browsers ...yada yady yada yada... so I haven't said anything to him yet.
