Hello all..
Just a wierd thing with my google homepage. I have a Google/Dell homepage with news and weather etc set to come up when I click on my homepage. For the past 2 days the page on my Firefox browser has come up looking like it's loaded wrong. There is no other problem with any other pages and when I use IE 8 ( which I rarely do) it looks normal.
I am running Firefox 3.5.3 and IE 8.
Not that it's interfereing or anything.. but I wondered if anyone else has had this happen?

Hi
Thanks for your replies.
I don't have Silverlight installed and I do have the latest Flash updates..

The only add-on I have disabled at the moment it the .NET framework one.
All the others are enabled.

DarkNovaGamer:
No just this one page in Firefox.

Zigzag:
Norton antivirus and firewall. All current and updated.:D

No new changes to software either..

I am on Opera now, on my old laptop and it's fine on here too.
Must be Firefox..
?

Hi Lemur,
Yes, I do. Wierd. The Dell/Google homepage is the only one affected.
The only add on that I have disabled is the .NET framework one and that's been that was for a while.

Dunno.. but it's not a huge problem. I might just change my homepage. :geek:

Thank you

Hello,
I think I fixed it.
I googled Dell Google homepage, clicked on a link that was much shorter than the one I sent to you. That link brought me to my homepage so i have cut and pasted it into my Firefox.
The page loads correctly now.. so far so good.
Thanks for your help.
:)
