X`terrania Posted July 30, 2008 Report Posted July 30, 2008 I know this isnt SS related' date=' and can be moved to trash talk if needed, but its really not trash talk The problem is, I am having a hard time going on certain websites. On FF I can go on certain websites, and on IE I can go on others. Heres an example of my problem: If I use firefox, I can access: google's home page, ask.com, mgbf, and alot of others. If I use IE, I can access: yahoo.com's home page, ssforum.net, and alot of others. I cant access yahoo.com and sfn on firefox at all. And as far as yahoo goes, I cant access my mail through IE, on google on FF, i cant search for anything. These are just a couple of examples. At first, I thought it was a DNS issue. But after taking these steps, I realized I was wrong: I contacted my ISP and they said that everything looks fine and they dont see any problems. Uninstalled/Reinstalled my modem. Uninstalled/Reinstalled/Changed versions of firefox. Checked through all security and option settings. Disabled my firewall. Entered OpenDNS and my ISP's DNS servers manually in network connections. My ISP reset my modem. I did an ipconfig /release and /renew, as well as a /flushdns The strange thing is, this just happened all of the sudden, everything has been fine for a long time now. There were no settings changed, and nothing was touched. I just turned on my computer one day and this started happening. I do not have a router, my modem directly connects to my computer. My modem drivers are up to date. After I thought about it a bit, I thought it was my Kaspersky AV causing the issues since it deals with internet security, so I uninstalled it. All these things, and it still doesnt help at all. I am totally lost and have no clue on what to do. If anyone has any ideas, or knows of any kind of program or way to find out what the problem is, it will be greatly appreciated.[/quote']
rootbear75 Posted July 30, 2008 Report Posted July 30, 2008 i have some problems with firefox not wanting to display sites correctly,but i thought that was only isolated to me. Is it something like this happening: when it should look like:
Chambahs Posted July 30, 2008 Report Posted July 30, 2008 Woot, fixed, seemed that it was a NASTY bug. Had to get rid of it, used Adaware, KAV, and Spybot. Finally got the job done.
JoWie Posted July 30, 2008 Report Posted July 30, 2008 i have some problems with firefox not wanting to display sites correctly,but i thought that was only isolated to me. Is it something like this happening: when it should look like: I have that sometimes when it fails to download the .css file. If it always happens it is most likely an issue in your settings (Try: View -> Page Style -> Basic Page Style)

X`terrania Posted July 30, 2008 Author Report Posted July 30, 2008 Now that I think about it, my mother's computer isn't displaying websites properly either, it's missing crap loads of jpeg's/etc
rootbear75 Posted July 30, 2008 Report Posted July 30, 2008 of course, i might need to mention that its Firefox v3 doing it
