This problem started recently.  This error happens when I try to open the URL above. Other sites have other issues such as forums and linked video clips not working. 

XML Parsing Error: junk after document element
Location: http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/index.xml

If i reload the page several times, it will randomly allow me into the site, but the forums, and video on other sites continues to not work.    The bookmark i link from has been in place for some time, and only recently failed.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.www.worldofwarcraft.com
2.reload page until actual content comes up
3.pages fail to load if they are in a forum type format

This bug was 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 3.6.3 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
