Many websites not loading properly/I have to clear my cache way too freaking much
I have the same issue as has been seen many times on these forums, the one better explained by this poor user: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/927176
I have never seen this actually solved, though. I have done the troubleshooting, gone through safe mode, made sure I don't have add-ons causing the problem, and I'm sure it's none of those. Clearing my cache solves it, but then the next time I visit the site in question (in the one I linked to, it was facebook, but for me, it happens with facebook, espn, wikipedia, yahoo answers, and google images, at the very least), the problem arises again. If I'm in even a reasonably long browsing session, it becomes extremely irritating.
Has anyone actually found a permanent solution to this?
If it helps, I'm using Windows 8 and FF 17 (though I had the problem with FF 16 as well).
Thanks, all.

Hi,
Is there any chance your PC is running out of memory? I'm not a Win 8 user so don't know the details of checking memory in it, but from what you're saying it's either short on memory or needs a bigger memory cache file. Googling it brought up this link: http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/6cde20/check-memory-usage-details-in-windows-8/
Ian.
Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps in case your security software (firewall, anti-virus) is causing problems.
Thanks for the response. It's not an issue with the PC's memory. I ran the tests suggested by that link, and throughout the day my memory usage ranged from 15%-30% capacity. Since clearing the cache always fixes the problem, I assumed it wasn't PC memory, anyway, though I am a novice on those things.
As for the bigger memory cache file, how would I go about doing that? What is the difference between memory cache and disk cache? I also don't understand why this wasn't an issue in older versions of FF (as far as I can tell, it didn't become widespread until FF 14, and I never experienced it until FF 16), but now it has been an issue for awhile with what seems like no fix being made. Is there something I'm missing?
Again, thank you for your help!
Java does work if you start your browser from the start menu including if it is pinned to the start bar. If you use a shortcut from the desktop everything works great.
Took over a month to find the solution but everything is working great now and I hope it works for you. Let me know if I wasn't clear.
