| 359033 | 2005-05-27 23:57:00 | Firefox is my default browser and google is my homepage yet when ever I connect to the internet my homepage can never be found unitl I refresh the page. when I connect with IE, no problems. I still think FF is nicer to use though. Any ideas? Tah. | timezone (7848) | ||
| 359034 | 2005-05-28 00:53:00 | Sometimes IE doesnt like not being the default browser. I would change the default browser back to IE. FF will still load, whether its default or not. |

| 359035 | 2005-05-28 01:54:00 | Even better - uninstall IE. Then it won't interfere. | pctek (84) | ||

| 359037 | 2005-05-28 03:26:00 | What version of Firefox do you have? It wouldn't take long to upgrade to version 1.0.4? A friend who I turned on to FF gets the Google home page with no trouble, and he's on 1.0.3. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 359038 | 2005-05-28 04:02:00 | Have not had that problem with FF, it's default. I'd be inclined to leave IE as a secondary browser rather than default, look to you FF settings especially about:config. | Murray P (44) | ||
| 359039 | 2005-05-28 04:04:00 | Oh yeah, good point. Im using version 1.0.2. I will upgrade now and see if that makes the difference. But the funny thing is, since I've posted in this forum, the original problem has ceased to exist. Maybe I should post more often, LOL :thumbs: | timezone (7848) | ||

We can fix problems remotely! Sometimes we can do it before we even know a problem exists. :-) |

| 359042 | 2005-05-28 08:04:00 | Only use I have for IE is XP Windows Updates or anything that has the misfortune to be only downloadable using IE. Found FF quicker than Netscape 7 but have left IE as available for use with Netscape as default. | FrankS (257) | ||
