Adobe Flash crashes frequently, pretty much daily; Maps and calendars display black diamonds, question marks etc. Some sites display as bullet point link lists; Some sites show overlapping text and action buttons don't work, eg. can enter log in credentials but nothing happens; Ticketmaster security check does not display distorted text. Etc...

All the above work fine in the IE browser.

I have downloaded fire bug on my Emachine E525 runing on linux mint 14. I have downloaded it on an up to date version of Mozzilla Firefox . The problem is on the console when i type in java script and hit run on the comand line it only returns the code i type in without the result for example if i where to type in. alert("don't panick") it would return alert("don't panick") instead of popping up an alert message.

no matter how i configure the tabs setting in firefox (open links and new windows in a new tab) , all links, URLs and bookmarks open in the same tab, instead of as separate tabs, unless i first open a new tab and then select/enter the link, URL or bookmark.

for this reason, i ALWAYS use Tab Mix Plus extension...this has mastered the use of tabbed browsing and is very easy to set up and keep up...i dont have to open blank tabs first and TMP has other options too...

i just downgraded from FF 17 to FF 16 bc Tab Mix Plus doesnt work with FF 17 and i wont have my browsing hindered by FF inability to make their tabs work...

btw, i always revert to a previous version of FF until Tab Mix Plus is updated to work with the current FF upgrade...

For reasons that are unclear to me I sometimes close Firefox and later re-open it. In some cases ALL the tabs and tab groups are gone. Today it opened in MSN.com and ALL tabs were gone. I put a lot of pages on these and have NO WAY to find them all again. If this continues and you cannot give me a way to recall them I simply will have to go to another browser. It always happens when I need them most and don't have time to even track down one. It completely upsets my day, week, month whatever!!!.

Is there a way to get them back? Someone asked a similar question and was never given a useful answer.

Changing from AT&T to Roadrunner, says ........ Proxy Servers - A proxy server lies in between your computer and the Internet. When you request a web page or other Internet content through your computer, you connect to your proxy. The proxy then requests the web page or content you're searching for on your behalf and returns it to you. The proxy's actions are carried out automatically and are invisible to you. A proxy is useful for filtering Internet content, connecting to the Internet through firewalls, and archiving web pages for quicker retrieval by users connected to it.

Road Runner does not support the use of proxy servers, and recommends that you disable proxies through your browser.

Suddenly the buttons at the top right are not working properly. There is no change in appearance when hovering the mouse over it. This does not occur immediately after I open firefox but shortly afterwards. I noticed by accident that if I open the options box and close it again these buttons will work for a while. It also applies to dialogue boxes that open up as well. I did not add any plugins, but I do believe there was a recent update for firefox installed. Thanks

I normally keep my Firefox window open for long periods of time because I have a lot of active tabs. When I close the window and reopen it, I am still able to restore tabs, but as of a few weeks ago, it has stopped restoring the most recent version. Normally, when I would close and reopen, the tabs would be the same ones that were open when I closed the window. Now, it restores to a version from a few days ago instead of the current version. I have to revert to pulling my more recent tabs out of the recent history. I checked my options and I can't figure out any way to control this. How can I fix it so that I can count on my Firefox window to restore the tabs that I actually care about?

Google is going to try to force us to use Chrome as a browser after November 2013 - I don't like Chrome but I do Love iGoogle which I run in FireFox. Is there any chance that will all the add-ons, personnas and apps you have created so far that your could adapt your Home page so that it could mimic iGoogle?

I really hate being forced into something I don't want and to have to leave the browser I love and have supported since it was Netscape.

Please tell me that this is at least possible. If there are any other site and locations that I should be posting this as well, please let me know about them as well.

Thanks so much for all the good work you have done in bringing the to us free and uncluttered and personizable! - It is much appreciated.
