New River Rat Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 I use FF all the time and for some reason, TU wont display properly. Right now I'm on IE, but would rather not be. Does anyone have a suggestion as to why (my) FF wont shoe TU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 There must be something in your settings that's preventing you from opening TU as I use Mozilla exclusively with no problems. I'd first have to ask what is exactly happening when trying to open this site? You could have it unknowingly blocked, or perhaps you might try clearing your history and cache. Here's a little info about add-ons and blocked websites...... https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/blocksite/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New River Rat Posted June 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) I've checked the blocked options, nothing amiss. Basically, I get the header area and not much else. Edited June 5, 2014 by New River Rat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New River Rat Posted June 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 I run Microsoft Malware removal, Webroot and Adaware almost every day. This is the only site I'm having problems with, and I paroose a lot of the innerwebs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Wow......very strange. When I have troubles with Mozilla (which is very rare), I always resort to resetting the browser. Have you done that yet? Just in case, here's how............. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-fix-most-problems?utm_expid=65912487-41.djHNRQY0RhaLvvtvcd0BQA.3&utm_referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Furl%3Fsa%3Dt%26rct%3Dj%26q%3D%26esrc%3Ds%26source%3Dweb%26cd%3D3%26sqi%3D2%26ved%3D0CC0QFjAC%26url%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fsupport.mozilla.org%252Fen-US%252Fkb%252Freset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems%26ei%3DXeKRU6auIMzxoATr6oIg%26usg%3DAFQjCNFtaKEVZ_YyFC_12I9TEu28byOooQ%26sig2%3DHRjFD023wY9Uf0-ER-xhUg%26bvm%3Dbv.68445247%2Cd.cGU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New River Rat Posted June 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) yeah, checked everything I can think of, know a bit about IT related stuff. Anything that I have added on,etc The only thing I haven't done is a system restore, and I doubt that would help. Edit to add. I'm going to remove and re-install FF. Let you know.........

alsworms Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 So I take it the re-install didn't help? And you're right.........a system restore won't help unless the site was loading fine in the past. This is a strange one..............................

RayburnGuy Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Doesn't Firefox have a question and answer forum for problems with their browser? You might try there. good luck, Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffond Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Does Firefox still have IE tab add on for it? I know they did years ago and that helped with some websites... I use chrome only and have zero issues. I know the site pulls up just fine on my linux machine with FF and opera as well so I am not even sure. You could also see if your java and flash need to be updated or are blocked in anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Forgot about java and flash. Good call on that, Griffond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New River Rat Posted June 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Checked everything Flash & Java relayed. Updated/nothing blocked. I'll Q&A over at Mozilla and see what I find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m.t.pockets Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 In fire fox do you have ads blocked? could be the reason. Looks the same to me but without the graphics and ads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New River Rat Posted June 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Well, I turned off three ad blockers and the site showed back up on Firefox. Looks nothing like I remember it, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffond Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 Well from a computer help desk tech... the first thing I notice with firefox is it's blocking all the adds... now is it FF or an extension on ff or your Anti virus software if your running one... secondly just for general troubleshooting do you happen to have a second PC? try doing a fresh install of FF and see what happens... I'd say you could run linux from a jump drive and try ff from that but I don't know your level of computer knowledge... I don't think its an issue with the registry but you could run Eusing Free Registry cleaner (it's safe) just click skip when it asks for a registration... its a bunch of geeks that made an awesome simple registry cleaning tool that is free. It is very odd that IE works and FF doesn't play nice thou... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New River Rat Posted June 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 Griffond, I have an Associate Degree in Information Technology/HelpDesk, so I understand a bit. I have three ad blockers as add ons toFirefox, I'm running Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool, WebRootSecure Anyware, and Ad-Aware Anti-Virus. I hear you on the Linux, but Ijust haven't bothered. I also reinstalled Firefox around post 6 or 7. ThanksSam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffond Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 Wow you are running allot of Anti virus stuff... just a random thought have you tried shutting all that off opening up FF to the page and see if it works and from there turn them on one at a time to see which one kills the site mostly...
