Morning guys I finally got firefox installed on this computer. I agree it is faster than the IE thingy :yoyo:. I do however have a problem and was wondering if any of you can help out the one of the dumbest of the dumb[currently ranked 2nd]. There is a site I like to visit a lot that I cannot get into on firefox. I can go to it but not sign in is what I mean. I uninstalled the fox but that didn't help so I was hoping for more ideas to try.I've also deleted all cookies, browsing history and cached pages so what now?
not sure what to tell ya. I recently switched to Firefox cause I hate windows. I have never came across a problem like that. I did however visit a site I rarely visit daily and it gave me a red screen warning me that it was a hazardous site.
Try clicking on Start, All Programs, Accessories, Command Prompt
then, type FORMAT C:
when asked Y/N answer Y and hit enter
That should fix your problem. :biggrin:

Semp,

:roflmao: :roflmao: Jerry, ya spilt the beans!!! :roflmao: :roflmao:
Uh! Yall are kiddin .......right? :holdon: :rolleye:
Yikes...formatting your hard drive as in erasing everything is like the last of all resorts.
Semp must be trying to get even with ya for something :laf:
But what exactly do you mean by, "I can go to it but i can't sign in"?
It's puffs smoke?
The lights flicker?
You forgot your password?
The wife screams, "Not again"?
You run out of time?
Your keyboard, freezes up?
Power surge?
:confused:
yeah I wouldn't do what semp is tellin ya. of course it will probably fix the problem but could be problematic when you want your stuff you just deleted.

I know that you have that special ability to talk to the coyotes. You just call out, invite them over to visit, and then KILL them. :biggrin:

Well with the help from people on this forum and a bit from Firefox I have successfully managed to get on the other site now :yoyo: :yoyo:. I appreciate the help and thank all of you :readthis:. Another thing on the plus side of this little wander into learning is that I have cleaned so much stuff out of this computer that is so fast I can make mistakes now :iroll:.
The story on the coyotes wasn't much as one of my Icelanders makes money at home by getting Fox bounty, so he wanted to see how I snare coyotes. We set out 10 snares on 200 yds of fence line where coyotes arewere bothering a feedlot owner. The next day when we drove up to check them and a coyote was standing there checking our handi work. Birger shot him and there were 6 in snares. I would love to tell the rest of the story but peta, green peace and the law would be on me like white on rice :puke:.
