My wife uses a forum site extensively and recent updates on Firefox probably about six months ago which stopped the site being useable in Firefox. At the time I contacted the site owner but I was probably the only one who had a problem. The touble we have is that the scrolling on the site is very erratic in FF and I wondered if it might be either her PC hardware or the OS (W2K). At this time I decided to try other browsers, Opera and Chrome both work just fine, so I setup Opera to just load this site. I did suspect that the PC needed re-installing but did not do it, the hardware is reasonable an AMD 2ghz CPU with 1Gb memory and enough h/disk space. This is the only site which she has a problem with everything else we have accessed works OK.
This week we had another problem with her PC so I decided to re-install from scratch, in fact updating it to XP SP3. As soon as I installed it and the latest Firefox 3.6.2 I found the site is still not scrolling cleanly so I believe it is something either in the site of Firefox. I do not have a problem with this site using FF on Linux or XP (dual-boot) on my PC (a dual-core intel) with FF but it is strange her PC still has a problem
So can I ask some folks here who use Firefox to try accessing
http://her2support.org/vbulletin/index.php and see if they have any signs of jerky scrolling? Also has anyone any ideas about what I can try to solve the problem?
Thanks..... Stuart
