I've been somewhat inactive on this forum since changing my browser to Firefox.  Whenever I log in, I get a message telling me I've been successful but my menu options don't change.  If I try to post I'm told to register or log in.  Today I received an email telling me I had a PM but, of course, I can't see my PMs.

I've tried logging in several times on the same session but to no avail.  I've reverted to IE for this post but I'd prefer no to have to do this.

Any ideas?

I've been running 3.6 and have just downloaded the lastest release (3.6.3) but it's still the same...

Firefox is usually the least troublesome of the browsers

One thing to try is to delete all cookies (Tools/Clear Recent History), not just this forum's cookie

Have you any Add-ons? You could try disabling them

I used to have that problem for a while but that was several versions ago. I run FF all the time and have no problems at the moment.
