I like those shaped like various bottle types.

I’ve never seen such a thing in Firefox, but then again, I haven’t actively adjusted the security features.

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.

(After hundreds of years of brutal islamic occupation, the newly freed Spaniards behaved the only way they knew, as they had been taught by their moorish masters. They quickly got over it, but never escaped the shame. The muslims, of course, never felt any shame for what they did)

Gee, did not know that. Guess mine do not qualify with those cute little smiley faces holding knives.

Firefox has become a mess.

Different versions have interfered with my touchpad function on two different Dell laptops.

A compromised browser isn’t going to tell you it’s compromised.

Unless the compromise was written by the same folks who brought you the obamacare software...

Continuing the planetary metaphors,
this is your browser (and/or browsing wardrobe):



This is mine:

I love FR! A FReeper asks for help and nearly 50 responses in half an hour, including two that actually fix the problem!

(And no Hellen Thomas pictures, either!)

Try this.

Go to HELP on the menu bar. Click on TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION.

Click on RESET FIREFOX to default mode.

The only big issue I have with the later versions of Firefox (20+) is that it continually crashes with the built-in Windows 7 Speech Recognition ... For now, I end up composing elsewhere and then pasting. I’ll have to consider Dragon Naturally Speaking as an option.

It isn’t Firefox. It is Windows. Which, although I am stuck with it, sucks. Unlikely. I'm on a Mac.

Oh snap!

I've been having problems with FF shutting down all the time without warning. Fixed it by downloading the beta version.

Now if I could just get rid of the ad links on every page (I have downloaded several blockers but none do the trick).

No “shorts within my shorts” if you will.

And most of my shorts that have no shorts in them have also got very big holes in the seat.

I only post naked on Lepetomane’s birthday.
