Expected Results:  
A displayed web page.

I am using Thunderbird and Firefox on an up-to-date XP Pro machine.  nAs I said, there was no problem up until a few releases ago of either Thunderbird or Firefox.

I have deleted and reloaded both, to no avail.

ASP.NET is a server side scripting service. The error is coming from the server you are connected to and has nothing to do with Firefox or Thunderbird. Please complain to seek.com.au instead.

A google search indicates that this is a common programming error by programmers using ASP.NET:
