FF 3.6 input problem

Post by Teunis »

I use FF for a long time now, even with 3.6 I had no problems until some time ago: I a number of case, for some rason, my inputs (topic, replies) such as login to this board, or the WS lunge, or my internet banking username and passwords are not accepted anymore even though they are correct.

I have no such problems with IE 8, which I use. I have uninstalled FF (not the personal settings) and reinstalled it, cleaned the cache, cookies, etc a number of times.

What could be wrong?
Regards, Teunis

To really clear out old history from FF requires you to delete (though perhaps rename would be safer in the firs instance) the file called places.sqlite from your FF profile folder.

I did and it helps a bit, i.e. now I can log in at each 2nd try.

E.G to get this answer posted in FF took me 2 tries.

Just to let yuo know that my problems have disappeared miraculously with version 3.6.2, just before I was going to give some other measures a try.
