Reload icon flashes on some web sites

Recently, the reload icon stopped working on some websites. When the cursor arrow is placed over the reload icon, it flashes. I've read the fixes, and non of them work. I have restarted in save mode, removed cookies, cleared cache, reset Firefox. None of that works. Running XP and Firefox 16.0.2. Two of the sites that won't reload are: http://finance.yahoo.com/ and http://www.nytimes.com/

Curious whether you still can reload with the keyboard combinations or whether those also fail:
* Ctrl+r (uses cache)
* Ctrl+Shift+r (bypasses cache)

Some web sites showing all text as "A" in a box?

Hard to explain but when i go to some web site all i see is lines and lines of capital "A" in a box?
It's like every letter has changed to this error icon. For example if I go to:
http://shop.orange.co.uk/newiphone
not sure if it's my system. I am all up-to-date.
My spec is 27.5" iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core i7, 4GB 1067MHz DDR3
Hope you can help?
Kind regards

Richard...
Could be a third party font manager causing the text issue.

I just downloaded the latest version of firefox (5.0). Can I delete all the older versions that are still on my drive? 2) When I call up some web sites sometimes the web site comes up 3 or 4 times...how do I stop this from happening?

I just downloaded the latest version of firefox (5.0). Can I delete all the older versions that are still on my drive?
When I call up some web sites sometimes the web site comes up 3 or 4 times...how do I stop this from happening? For example if I click on a link the exact same link comes up 3 or 4 times and I have to manually delete all of them but one.

Do you organise your email into separate folders, or do you just let it accumulate in the Inbox?
I would strongly advise you not to let it sit in the Inbox.
When you see this happening, try right-click on the affected folder, select '''Properties''' then '''Repair Folder'''.
Large folders (actually, a folder in Thunderbird is stored as a file, so it is sensitive to file size limits set by the underlying file system) can be problematic. This is one reason not to let messages collect in one folder. I use Thunderbird's Archive folders so that accumulated mails over several years can happily coexist because they are effectively stored in many small folders. No single mail store folder then exceeds the 2GB or 4GB sizes that have been known to stress the OS. I appreciate that current builds of Thunderbird and a modern 64-bit OS should be able to cope, but practically I find it slows down when given huge files, so I err towards a pragmatic solution; a large number of not very big files.
Archives are searchable, and a Saved Search folder can give you a virtual composite folder allowing access to the entire Archive.

Some web-sites won't let me in, or send me in loops.

I hope this is the correct place to post this question. I have developed a problem with some web-sites that won't let me in. They used to, and I don't really know when the problems started, and it is only some sites. Most are well-behaved, and the same comments apply whether I am using Safari 3 or 4 or Firefox, so it doesn't really seem like a browser problem tome... more a system/set-up problem.
I am currently running OSX 10.5.6 with all the most current updates applied. My machine is a 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac, with 4GB SDRAM, linked to the web via a Dynamode router, using a wired Ethernet connection. My wife is running a slightly earlier Intel iMac through the same router... I mention this point as the problems I am asking about do not occur with her machine).
The problem is this, and occurs whether I am using Safari 3 or 4 (my 'preferred' browser), or Firefox. Certain web sites let me in so far, and then either throw me around in loops, or just refuse to take any input on certain pages. Particular ones are
www.emusic.com I choose 'Login' on the 'Start Page', which takes me to the 'Enter Login Details' page. I enter my login details and click 'Submit' and am then thrown back to the 'Start Page'.... which then produces and endless loop...
www.which-local.co.uk I enter my login details on the 'Start Page', click "Login" and am thrown back to the 'Start Page' to enter my login details again... this is again an endless loop...
www.royalmail.com I work through the sequence 'Personal Customers'/Sending mail overseas/Airmail/Buy online now/Overseas and weight/Country(Oman)/Airmail Small Packets - Buy and Print/ Enter login details and Login - Print your postage/Complete the address - Continue... and I'm back to the 'Buy Online Now' page.(Although this latter one is a longer sequence, it is very similar to the other two... there are others... one lets me get to a certain page, then will not accept any text entry on the page.)
www.apple.com I log-in with my Apple ID, and get sent to the Set Up Your Account page (which contains a blue link that would let me cancel my account. I quit there, and go back to the log-in page... just can't get in... unless I do what I havedone to enable me to write this query... that is, to restart under Safe Boot... which is a lot of fuss to get into the forums.
With all these sites, if I do a Restart and a Safe Boot (Shift Key) then the problems all disappear. And as I said earlier, the problems do not occur when I use my wife's machine. This implies to me that there is something in my set-up that is causing the problems, and which is disabled in Safe Boot.
Under OS 9 I would then have gone to the control panels and done a binary search with restarts until I had isolated the process that was causing the problem.
I have deleted Intego Firewall, and Intego Virus Barrier. They are the only major items that seem possible culprits, and which have never been installed on my wife's machine (which runs only under the built-in OSX Firewall that is configured exactly as mine is, allowing access for specific services and applications... among them Safari and Firefox), which seems to have no problems. This doesn't seem to have helped - (though they have been involved in other problems in the past, which have then been resolved). I can think of no way that I can identify what is interfering with both browsers in this way. I have both browsers configured to accept cookies, and not to block pop-ups, as each of these has caused problems with other sites in the past!!.
So where do I go from here!!?

It still sounds like there is a problem with cookies being set. Since you were previously running a virus scanner, did it do something with the cookie databases, such as change their permissions? Don't bother with repairing permissions from Disk Utility, it does nothing inside a user account - for that, you would need to use the Reset Password utility from the OS installation disk.

I have the latest version of Safari on my Ipad but in these days it no longer dislays the pictures os some web sites like Zalando.

I have the latest version of Safari on my Ipad but lately it no longer displays the pictures iof some web sites . For example, I can't see all the pictures of the products on Zalando's web pages. Can someone help me to solve this problem?

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost.

Since I updated my IPad software to iOS 5.0.1 from 5.0, I cannot access some web sites. Hoy can I go back?

Since I updated my IPad software to iOS 5.0.1 from 5.0, I cannot access some web sites. How can I go back?

Sorry, you cannot downgrade iOS software.
First thing to try is a reboot of your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appear. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.

Firefox closes "Save As" window on some web sites when downloading

On some web sites, such as Scribd or PC World, Firefox will quickly force shut the "Save As" window when downloading. It happens so quickly that I barely have time to see the "Save As" window. The same web site on IE will not cause this to happen. I have done a web search and tried several of their tips, but the same thing happens on Firefox when I try to download from those sites. This problem started in Firefox 3 and is continuing in Firefox 4. Adjusting settings in or disabling AVG Internet Security does not work either.

Only security software (probably anti-virus software or the firewall) would show such a message if it was a Windows message, so you can check it there.
If it is a message from a Firefox extension then see this:

What is procedure to block and avoid these unwanted cookies ?
In the past my system has received viruses, worms, trojan horses through spam EMail cookies.
As a result, it is necessary for me to avoid un-necessary cookies, and select only those limited cookies that have come from safe sources.
Do not have this security difficulty with FF 3.0.10.

Keyboard didn't function when it is not the text bar in some web sites

I find that there is a big problem that I can't use the keyboard when I use the Safari or Firefox home on some web sites which isn't a text bar, I can only see it but can't type anything there, also there isn't any keyboard shortcut ? Actually I can't commit to buy the iPad also because of this. What to do?

RTP300-NA v1.1 slow to some web sites with Vista (XP ok)

I have a RTP300-NA VoIP router (v1.1) which works perfectly with Windows XP, but not with Windows Vista. With Vista some web sites work OK, while others have a ~2 min delay. These web sites appear completely and quickly after the initial 2 min. It seems as though something is timing out. It may be coincidental, but the web sites that did not seem to work also did not respond to a ping. (cnn.com has the 2 min delay, but yahoo.com does not.) All web sites work from both XP and Vista using my old router (SMC Barricade SMC7004BR).
I updated the firmware in my RTP300. This did not make a difference, but it may have also been a mistake. I realized later that I have v1.1, while the update was for a v1.0 (there is no update for v1.1)
I also tried various MTU sizes, as suggested by the Linksys web site, with no improvement. My internet connection is via a cable modem.
Any thoughts?
Thank you.

What is the difference between version 1 and 1.1 of the RTP300-NA router?
