Firefox & Ab...

This is weird - I've been on AB via Firefox since midday-ish & all of a sudden, I'm unable to access anything but the front page.

Clicking a topic or Latest Post takes me to the front page.

"Crosswords" is back below "Quizzes & Puzzles".

I'm now using Chrome, but really don't like it - I prefer Firefox for AB.

Any ideas anyone? I'm unsure as to why this has happened, so - do I uninstall/reinstall Firefox?

It's all very odd, IMO.

As always, thank you for your time & attention :-)

You've certainly got me confused! I'm using Firefox to view your post, with no problems.

It might be worth resetting Firefox (rather than uninstalling/reinstalling). First go to Tools > Add-ons > Extensions and note down the names of any extensions that you want to keep (because you'll need to reinstall them after
resetting). Then go to Help > Troubleshooting Information and click on 'Reset Firefox' (at the top right of the page). That will put Firefox back to the way it was when you installed it (except that your bookmarks and other settings will be preserved).
Chris, would that clear cookies and cache? The problem could be there
Hi TB:

Resetting Firefox preserves cookies:

If LIK wants to try clearing cookies, etc, that can be done via Tools > Options > Clear All Current History.
Is your Firefox up-to-date. It should be FF30.

Open firefox .....Help > About Firefox.

Thanks for the answers guys! I was unable to reset FF, then I was denied access by both Chrome & IE.

I am now back on, able to use both FF & Chrome - it may have been my IP address being blocked due to the system being a bit over-sensitive (?)

Ah well, all seems fine now - again, thanks for taking the time to help :-)
