Firefox 4 - I open a page (pg 1), click on a link to older pages (pg 2), view a pic (pg 3), hit the back button, and it returns to pg 1. How do I get it to return to pg 2? This has not been a problem with any previous version of Firefox.

Do you have McAfee Site Advisor installed? There have been quite a few reports on this forum about that add-on causing problems with the back button.

No, I don't. Have Adobe Acrobat, Google Earth, Google Update, Java, Windows Media, Move Streaming Media Player, Music Notes, Quicktime, Scorch Plugin, Shockwave and Silverlight. Don't know what most of them are!! Thanks for your interest.

This may be caused by a problem with an add-on. For details of how to troubleshoot that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

Well, I've tried everything suggested in the troubleshooting pages, but still have the problem. I do a lot of graphics work, and this is driving me crazy. I'll probably go back to an earlier version...
