Firefox 1.5.0.7 frequently displays webpages in HTML code when I am browsing some sites like Ebay. Refresh sometimes works for a page or two. Other sites seem to completely give up after half displaying a page and refresh doesn't work, though switching to IE extension means I can sometimes carry on. I also suspect a problem with cookies since some sites now don't recognise me without me reloading FF
I am tempted to return to the previous version
Running XP S2 on 2.8GHz 1 meg RAM with Zone Alarm and AVG
Suggestions please?

Clear your cache and cookies. Then go back to the page(s) in question and see what happens.
For the future, you can force Firefox to get a fresh copy of every page. Do the following:
In your address bar type about:config
In the Filter field type browser
Find the entry browser.cache.check_doc_frequency
Right-click and change the value to 1
See if the above helps.

When FF is not doing that it sometimes calls Free Download Manager to handle HTML. I've disable that in themes but it still does it.
Any more suggestions please?

I'm pretty sure I've seen this reported here as tracing back to
some external system utility like a firewall or anti-virus utility.
Something about it not passing the complete http response
header.
But I've not been able to find the appropriate reference to give
you a link, sorry.

I've been using AVG for several years and it's never given be any problems in
either Firefox or Thunderbird.
