Firefox having problems with a GLP thread

Works for me.
Do you have the newest update of FF?

I've got no problems loading that thread - I'm using version 1.5.0.6

Can't comment about your settings cause I don't know what your setting are. Sorry.

ok

My firefox Linux Version... handeled it fine... Have you cleared yer catch?

weird. new problem ever for me.

Dunno what the deal is.

I have Firefox latest build. Cleared Cache.

ASIDE: My kids contracted an miserable Trojan Downloader on my PC [not GLP-related]

I've been going bonkers trying to remove PurityScan virus from my computer. Damn worm regenerates!

Maybe I screwed something up trying to clean/block. Recommendations sought.

But I still don't understand why this folder-only dumps me.

Works okay on IE.

I have been having problems with my Firefox browser and GLP all day. It would load the pages halfway then stop. All other sites would load normally, but not GLP.

I went to another forum and the same started to happen but only with certain posts.

It would load halfway and stop. But at this site I could see in my address bar other sites trying to load on top of the post, it was long enough so I could copy them. The ones I caught where:

ptr91.com

pcmicroware.com

lambiek.net

easyweb.easynet.co.uk

One of these are from a gun dealer (!!??!!).

Its nothing new for GLP, funny enough mine usually freezes when I go to some of the links you provide!

I just put it down to the GLP wise asses!

And its funny you should say that because mine just did it on the Mason link...

Its a conspiracy I tell you! Its a conspiracy! lol

re spyware removal - if you're using XP
you MUST turn off the System Retore,
run your scans to remove *all* of it,
then you can turn the S. R. back on.

Use Opera. IMO it is much better than Firefox and it is free like firefox [link to www.opera.com]

Here's few good programs for adware and trojans

Ad-Aware [link to www.lavasoftusa.com]

Spysweeper [link to www.webroot.com]

Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.4 [link to www.download.com]

and it helps if you got good antivirus and firewall programs. i have Avast Antivirus and Kerio Personal Firewall. Best programs ever

net has been slow all night other site been talking about it and there a new worm
out there so i would guess a bunch of site will have to fix themself today ,
that and microsoft want you to down
load anther fix lol.

Kent , I have the same problem, But its with IE 6.0 . Last few days I get a message to send error to Microsoft .
I click yes , the browser flashes , closes , then comes back up to my home page . Mostley on GLP . other places sometimes . Happens from my home on win xp and at work on win 2000

This all started about 30 days ago

System Restore would not turn off in my computer\properties\system restore\check box

So I disabled the service.

In any case no luck. After scans from the most spiffy adware/antivirus software I still get malware and trojon downloaders regenerating in my system32.


Maybe I should wash my PC in the dishwasher, that might work.

Shoot it?

Don't blame it on the kids.

Did you try booting in safemode, and scanning with AV + anti-spyware?

I mean, scanned them AFTER you booted in safemode..

Install Avast Antivirus and do a boot-time scan.

Firefox is a problem !

And no, i aint a IE-fan either...

yeah - fuckin XP - its SOooo great...
anyway

Start PC in SAFE MODE login as ADMIN
disable System Restore,
RUN all Malware scans (don't trust only 1)
re-start
and do it ALL AGAIN.
only after Every thing is ok, start normal.

good luck.

BS. never had any problems with FF, and tons with IE.

Use this extension for extra security, It blocks scrips. You can easily allow sites that you trust to run scripts, but others are blocked.

Combo:
FireFox (newest)
IE > 5.5 (because of the Flash and QuickTime plugins)
Outlook Express
AVG free antivirus
and a MUST
Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.4 [link to www.download.com]

good lord - OUTHOUSE express
is the biggest hole on any system
dump it!

I removed OUTHOUSE from my PC years ago.
