...can't even load the forum at all on Firefox 17.0.1 (on latest release) - just getting 'HTTP error 400. The request is badly formed'. Tried clearing cache/history and restarting pc...i don't come here that often anymore but won't bother at all if it involves using another browser...anyone got any ideas?!

Ya already know the answer ... so ... good to see you one last time.

Take care.

Bub.

It would be a shame not to see you around Mark. Just use Chrome, Firefox will never play nice with this old forum software.

FF 3.6.28 works for me with no issues.

Dunno why FF seem to have gone version mad of late, if it aint broke an' all that. Then again, if the massive effort of opening another browser is too much effort to go to for any given activity, then that probably tells you all you need to know. Missing you already ...... ;)

To be honest I'm starting to think that Internet Explorer doesn't look so bad these days. Chrome has a ton of bugs too. Sometimes a tab will "break" in that I can't load any other site other than the one that's already in it.

Opera

It works on my computer since I am using that right now.

I was reading the OP while my machine was downloading the FF update. 17.0.1 seems to run just as well as any of the other recent releases.

Firefox here but I got off the update-new-version-twice-a-week-madness and went back to version 5, that's where I am now. Works great.
