    Hey Guys,
    I've not been able to upload an attachment for the last 6 hrs??
    Also can't seem to open 'buddy list' either....neither window will open! .Using FF with java and java script enabled.....any ideas? Works fine if I switch over to IE...but what could be up with FF??
    TIA,
    Brad.

    A while ago (last night) I just had that problem, and I cleaned the cache in Mozilla and it fixed the problem for me. It happened just after I ran CCleaner. Then after the clean I had to also clear the cache in Mozilla..
    Also it would work just fine with IE .

    Yes. Many problems with Mozilla and Firefox have been fixed by clearing the cache. Try it :)

    OK....attachment window and buddy list now open!
    Now I'm not sure if it was uninstalling 'user agent switcher' extension (because it was updated this morning?) or if it was the reinstall of FF??
    Might put the extension back on and see what happens??

    It's working again now ??

    I deleted some of my previous attachments, which I stumbled across somehow o_O

    I had I think 3.7 MB of buildup there. Is there a limit to how many I can store ??

    It makes total sense if that's right........ ;)

    No, there's no limit on upload totals and it would only be a coincidence that it started working after. There are actually many posts in this section about this type of issue with FF, but there is nothing we can do here in the forum software to fix it since it works for almost everyone normally, and those who have problems fix it by jiggling the handle. :D

    I don't think the 37Mb was your prob.....I've got a tiny bit more than that. I've asked about the limit before and if I recall correctly, Admin were not too worried...yet ;) . Anyway I think my prob was a FF bug......maybe from an extension update?? Uninstalled the extension, uninstalled FF, reinstalled both, prob fixed.......still not sure why! :D
    I couldn't even get the attachment window to open...
    Cheers.

    EDIT: Just pipped me there LWM...was typing. 2 finger typist! :D
