XP SP3 (32bit) running ESS 4.0.424 and a FireFox 3.0.10 user? Need your help to check

if youre running Windows XP SP3 32bit (home/pro) and ESS v4.0.424.0 as well as Firefox (3.0.10 here), I need your help to see if I was the only one going crazy...

can you load http://www.overclockers.com.au and http://ad.yieldmanager.com and report if both load?

The first may load initially but the content in the middle of the screen may not show, because it's waiting on an ad from the second URL. This may not always be the case, depending if you get served an ad from the URL in question.

If you load the second URL, it should have a simple index page (pretty much blank) with the text 'Not Found' to stop people viewing index listing. If you get nothing like it's "waiting for http://ad.yieldmanager.com...." then I can rest easy that I was not going crazy

NB: I couldnt replicate this in Vista SP2 (32bit) and only found it in XP SP3 (32bit). It also only affected Firefox (v3), and not Internet Explorer (v7). From what I can see, v4.0.437.0 has fixed this issue so it is all good. I just want to check with others still running v4.0.424 that it wasn't only me...

Thanks

 

I can load the first URL and not content appears missing. The second URL returns the 'Not Found' message.

ESS 4.0.424, FF 3.10, XP Pro, SP3.

 

Thanks for checking that. can i ask, have you got a fairly stock-standard configuration? haven't enabled that option for 'test mode' to receive module updates that aren't quite ready?

any chance you can do a copy paste of the about screen showing all the modules installed? (i just found this out myself, if you hit ctrl-A then control-C, it just copies it all to the clipboard).

Many thanks LoPhatPhuud
