Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Steven Atkiss]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080201 Firefox/2.0.0.12
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080201 Firefox/2.0.0.12

Note: This didn't used to happen.
1st. Clicking on a link to send an email. I get redirected to my google account to send email, page status displays done and will not load the page.

2nd. Google page creator, Click on a page to edit from the manager window  the page attempts to load and once again status reads done and will not load the page.

As I said it FireFox never used to do this, I love Firefox please see what you can do.

Also, how comes there are now pop ups appearing from all over the place "advertising by DCAdds", this also never used to happen.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Ensure Google is the default email manager in FF
2.Click on a link on any website to send an email (Contact us etc.)
3.FireFox should then redirect to the google create email page with the specified email address in the CC bar.
Actual Results:  
once clicked on the "Contact Us" link FF is redirected. The pages title is "loading...", and the status bar reads "done.". The page will then not load.

(This also happens now when trying to edit pages in GoglePages, the pages stop loading)

Expected Results:  
Google's on-line email page should be displayed allowing me to type an email and simply send it.

Does it work if you run Firefox in the Firefox safemode ?

This bug was originally reported on Firefox 2.x or older, which is no longer supported and will not be receiving any more updates. I strongly suggest that you update to Firefox 3.6.6 or later, update your plugins (flash, adobe, etc.), and retest in a new profile. If you still see the issue with the updated Firefox, please post here. Otherwise, please close as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME
