| 309875 | 2005-01-02 09:22:00 | Hi A funny problem has arisen over the last few days. Before Xmas I e-mailed an attachment to my daughter (copy of an FTP program but I don't think that's important). Since then, when I try to send an attachment the dialog box opens at the downloads\software folder that I had to get that file from for my daughter and then Mozilla freezes. Can only get out of it by doing the CTRL ALT DEL thing. I opened Netscape Navigator and it had no problem attaching the file. Any ideas anyone? :help: |

| 309876 | 2005-01-02 10:41:00 | I had the same issue with Firefox - It went away when I upgraded from 0.7 to 1.0 :) | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 309877 | 2005-01-03 07:44:00 | After I had a look to see if Netscape could attach a file I went back into Mozilla to see if that had somehow loosened things up there ... and it had. The problem is now gone. Go figure! | Oggy (5399) | ||
| 309878 | 2005-01-19 01:46:00 | Oops. Spoke to soon. The problem has returned. This time it returned several 'blue screens of death' following the CTRL ALT DEL action. I think I might empty the folder that Mozilla is dafaulting to and see if that stops it hanging. Any other ideas would be welcome (apart from using Outlook) |

| 309880 | 2005-01-19 04:25:00 | Are you using 'Mozilla Firefox' or just 'Mozilla'? I had the same issue with Firefox - It went away when I upgraded from 0.7 to 1.0 :) FireFox is a browser boys and girls, no mail program at all. |

| 309881 | 2005-01-19 04:45:00 | Ah heck, why'd I write firefox for an email client..... I had the same issue, just wrote the wrong app name. Never actually had issues like that with Firefox :-/ As you can see it was getting pretty late: 02-01-2005, 11:41 PM |

| 309882 | 2005-01-19 19:52:00 | Solved (again). I emptied the folder that Mozilla was pointing to and it all works now. I knew I was onto a winner when I opened Windows Explorer to empty the folder as when I selected the relevant folder, Explorer took an age to open it completely and had stalled on the same icon that Mozilla stalled on when I was trying to do the attachment. Why? Who knows? Don't really care as long as it's all going again. :D | Oggy (5399) | ||
