Starting yesterday, 10/4/11, the website looks horrible on firefox. To the point it can no longer be used. Still looks ok/normal on ie.

Anyone else having this issue?

No issues at all, might be one of your plugins.

I'm running firefox with the latest updates but only use flashblock not adblock. I have windows XP though. I am not blocked. Does ADOBE need to be updated? Or flashplayer?

I had problems with McAfee and my computer guy recommended AVG

Don't suppose you had McAfee running on your PC?
I heard that Mozilla was blocking the McAfee Firefox extension, citing "explosive crashes".
See this ZDNET article

I am running FF 3.6.23 on Ubuntu 10.04 and, if this message works, I'm good......

I am holding onto FF 3.6.17. The 4.0 did not play well with my DUN connection. Too many issues with it, and yeah, lots of peeps have had issues with the updates.

As for this site, it works fine with my FF.

"Don't get the newest verison of Firefox, it doesn't work well with PCs."

What kind of PC? I have it loaded on a Dell, HP and home built and I have no problems.

No such problems here with FF 3.6.22. Mozilla just came out with 3.6.23 but I doubt that there is much difference. FF 4.x has been available for some time and there is some sort of ver 5 out there, maybe just in beta form.

It would be nice if folks asking questions about how their computer is working would list their operating system, browser version, and enough other details to make it possible for someone to rationally discuss the issue.

What exactly are you seeing?
Also, what FF version are you using? Any add ons?

I am using 3.6.17, and it is working fine.

Have yo upgraded to a newer version?
