506619 2006-12-15 12:31:00 Ok sorry if I misled you, when I disable Java and, yes Javascript, using NoScript extension, which are my default settings on Firefox, if I forget to reset before opening Gmail I get the sort of thing that you are talking about and sometimes Gmail defaults to html with messages saying that is what it is going to do. zqwerty (97)

Oh! So you are saying that the problem could be due to the inactivation of javascript in both browsers?

Cheers :)

506622 2006-12-16 08:26:00 Proxomitron on default settings also stops Gmail from working correctly, I bypass it whenever I look at my Gmail. zqwerty (97)
506623 2006-12-19 07:09:00 She has checked through everything; javascript enabled, history, cache and any personal information have been cleared. Guess I will tell her to try the last resort - i.e. reinstall Firefox.

Cheers :)

506624 2006-12-19 07:24:00 Does she have the CustomizeGoogle0.55 extension, I think mis-setting this can cause problems. zqwerty (97)

No idea whether she has that extension installed. I will check with her when she comes online. Is there any other suggestions besides that?

Cheers :)

506626 2006-12-19 08:57:00 No whatsoever extensions have been installed in her Firefox.

506627 2006-12-19 10:16:00 Since both browsers don't work, something I forgot when I made my last post, I suggest that you have a look in the Hosts folder, you can use Spybot to do that. Probably the safest way rather than finding the folder with Explorer.

Open Spybot/Tools/Hosts, see if there is anything that relates to Google.

Oh, by the way,

Correction: "None whatsoever extensions etc" still cumbersome but better.

I would say: "Absolutely no extensions etc"

Congratulations on that cool fix in the other thread, nobody but you got that.

506628 2006-12-25 05:34:00 Hi zqwerty (I just love typing your name :P ). It turns out that the central server of her computer system is at fault as it is somehow configured by the IT-technician to block gmail.com from being accessed.

Oh, thanks for the correction and compliment :D

Cheers :)

P.S. Merry Xmas to you, zqwerty
