I have used FireFox for a long time and then one day it started acting weird. It would freeze up and I would always have to reboot so I stopped using it and switched to IE7 and that ran great for awhile then it did the same thing as FireFox. I used both for dropping Entrecards by the way.
They both started signing me out and I would always have to refresh and start over again and I always got mixed up on who I had dropped on. I was really getting very frustrated with the whole thing. I thought I might have a virus, but that checked out okay.
Things always looked normal when I used FF and IE distorted blogs and would make them break and also made Entrecard widgets disappear. I deleted and reinstalled, but nothing has helped. So I downloaded the IE8 beta and that worked better.
However when I went to my blog and tried to view another page on my site the Izea tools url jumped into the address bar and wouldn’t let me go anywhere. So I had to delete that version and get even more frustrated. By that time I was ready to throw in the towel on everything.
I had just purchased a program called Version Tracker Pro and it tracks your programs and drivers and lets you know when there are updates and I saw the FFox 2 beta 5 and downloaded it, but none of my addons were compatible, but if it worked I really didn’t care.
I tried it last night for dropping and it was great, it didn’t knock me out of Entrecard nor did it freeze up on me and I can see everyones card now and at least that mystery was solved for me and the blogs that would break in IE or not load all look great in this beta FFox.
I wanted to post about this incase someone else has been having similar things happening to them. I’m not very technical so there could be any number of reasons everything is flaking out on me. I probably just need that new pc which I’ll get someday soon I hope.
