    With Firefox, the notebookreview forums are completely screwed up. When I try to log in and I get the message saying that I've logged in, it logs me out when I go back to browsing the forums. Also, when I try to do a search or go to notebookreview.com, I get a bad request.

    I'm posting this from IE which is butt ugly and annoying to use. I know it's not any of the addons in FF because I ran it in safe mode and the same problem occured. Am I the only one getting this strange problem?

    I use FF 3.5.2 and I've had no issues with this or any other forum. I don't think your problem is FF-related.

    I have no problems whatsoever with Firefox. I'm sure this problem is related to something else.
    I don't know how to solve this problem though.

    Check the ad blocker. It may have a problem with the following:

    ClearBlue Technologies
    Web Side Story, Inc
    Double Click, Inc

    Unblock them temporarily see if that helps.

    In my Adblock filters, I only have stuff from Double Clic, Inc. I disabled those for a little bit but nothing seemed to have changed.

    I could tell you how my firefox options are set up if that helps. Mine works fine on this forum. It looks exactly like using IE, I would not know the difference. I rarely use firefox because many websites don't support it still. Just keep it for backup or something, but anyways I can walk you thru its settings.

    Post that are off-topic/troll in nature will be removed. If you have any constructive comments(on firefox settings etc related to firefox/internet settings like Twiz has done), feel free to post them.
