Default TB 1.5.0.7 problem?


I recently installed the upgrade. Now if I go to
http://www.bigyellow.com/ and click on "People", the screen gets cleared
and nothing happens. Can someone else try that for me. TIA.

Clearly you mean FF 1.5.0.7.

I don't see a link that says People, but there is a menu item that says
People Pages, is that the one you mean?

Its working fine from here, it brings me to:

http://find.person.superpages.com/

Thanks. Once again I have to guess what is wrong with my installation.
Do you have any hints? Maybe I should uninstall Ad-Block Plus. But
are there Options that might be wrong? I get a "connection reset" after
about 5 minutes which says that my end is not responding promptly.

Run FF in Safe Mode. That will disable your extensions, and give us
some more insight into where the problem lies.

Start>>Programs>>Mozilla Firefox>>Mozilla Firefox (Safe Mode)

Thanks, Lee. The web page shows up in Safe Mode. But where do I look
for the culprit?

Well, we know its an extension problem. The stock answer is disable all
extensions, then reenable them one by one until you find the offender.

However, you might start with disabling AdBlock, that seems a likely one.

Hah! I found that AdBlock is the only extension I have, but just for
grins, I tried the offending web page -- it works! I haven't the
faintest idea why. Thanks for your help.
