goldhound Posted July 1, 2010 ID:278189 Share Posted July 1, 2010 i cannot access MBAM forum with Firefox today? The page just times out and will not load. I had to use (ugh!) IE to get in here. Using Firefox 3.6.6 and i redownloaded and installed it with no luck. There are a couple other websites i am having trouble with as well, sometimes get in and sometimes not, neither of them are security forums. All other places i go are fine.It has been so long since i had to actually log in here that i used the wrong password a few times and got locked out Weird stuff and i hope Firefox has not had another glitch.

Couposn Posted July 3, 2010 ID:279012 Share Posted July 3, 2010 I have started to move to Google Chrome its so much faster, infact Firefox has slowed down since 2.0 , the version we use 3.* is slower, use Malwarebytes Coupon to upgrade to the full version and use the IP block feature too.

goldhound Posted July 4, 2010 Author ID:279433 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I have not seen enough speed difference to go with Chrome. Wondering if Chrome would still be as fast if you could get the great security addons Firefox has? Not likely as Google is a security risk itself Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not likely as Google is a security risk itself Hang in there with Firefox Wayne - 4.0 is only be even more fantastic. I think I've tried every browser variation out there and only use IE8 if a particular website won't accept the IETab add-in for Firefox; which is rare. And like you said, the add-ins (-ons?) really make squeaky clean work of security..~Shy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimpy Posted July 4, 2010 ID:279525 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Goldhound, it might just be a forum issue, I have noticed that it takes along time to load for me some days too! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSnakeKobra Posted July 5, 2010 ID:279539 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Then there are users that have moved to Windows 7 and have no need of Firefox. Watch it Yokenny1. Just keep it to yourself. No need to add comments like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
noknojon Posted July 5, 2010 ID:279540 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Then there are users that have moved to Windows 7 and have no need of Firefox.This signature is who I am. If you got a problem with it, then don't comment on it.Leave it alone and keep to the issues -I like that "pretty" attached image -The forum still seems a bit 'buggy' - Slow on edits and responses again ??

goldhound Posted July 5, 2010 Author ID:279541 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Thanks chimpy, it could be anything but i get really suspicious when something "fixes itself" and wait for the other shoe to drop YoKenny1, why would using windows 7 mean one does not need the security of Firefox? We have Win 7 on one laptop and Firefox lives there happily. I have never heard what you stated before but i am not an expert and i would sure appreciate an explanation.Seems i see lots of Win 7 computers with malware and viruses that come from scripts run on malicious sites that may not have been a problem with "no script" and Firefox.
