I am having the same problem.

Post by webduck »

I am having the same problem when I log into PayPerPost. I don't have a solution, but it kind of made me feel better to see that it isn't just me having a problem with reloading. ;) It doesn't happen when I use IE7, so it seems to be a Firefox issue?

I wonder if this started right after they did the upgrade to the latest FF ?

I believe this is an add-on conflict, and what I did was log into FF in safe mode to see if it resolved the problem. It did. So, I went back and disabled the add-ons that were newest (one especially I think was the culprit was eQuake Alert; good add-on but...) and the reloading problem seems to have been resolved. Hope so anyway. If not, I will be back to this forum. :) Thanks to everyone who offered advice and help.

I get the same problem Yahoo also. I've tried the cookie solution, disabling all my add-ons to no avail. It doesn't happen every time I visit the site but it happens enough so that it is an annoyance. The problem is especially annoying when I am composing an e-mail or replying. Because the page is reloading there is a delay between keystrokes and the display. It kind of reminds me of the old 300 baud days of dialup connections.

Firefox ver. 3.5.2

Please don't attempt to resurrect such an old thread - the version(s) of Firefox being discussed there, are quite ancient. Please start a new thread.
