Having problems with the new version of Mozilla Firefox (3.0.1)?

Question

Almost every time I click on a link, the page won't load or it takes longer than it usually did. It says "Page Load Error", "Network Timeout". This didn't happen so often with the older version I had. I constantly have to reload the page. It's getting annoying.

I have gotten use to Mozilla so I wouldn't really like to go back to I.E. but if this keeps happening then I'm going to have to. Does anyone have any other suggestions? A solution to this problem or other browsers you might recommend?

Answer 1

check you firewall, and allow mozilla.org.

also set you access and default program (Vista or XP) as Firefox as you default browser.

Answer 2

I had the same exact problem on my laptop with FF. It seemed to have cured itself though. Try it again tomorrow.  

Answer 3

try to make your internet faster in gpedit.msc this will help you surely

Answer 4

Not having any problems with the same version of Firefox.  But yeah, I can recommend a browser: have you tried Google's Chrome? It's still in Beta but it's got pretty much the same features as Firefox but the pages load a whole lot faster for me.  A really cool alternative.

Check it out: http://www.google.com/chrome

Good luck!
