http://www.photobucket.com  cannot retrieve JPG images from my files in FIREFOX MOZILLA. It claims there is an error...BUT...I can upload images in  Explorer. I can also upload images when I use the FIREFOX right-click to upload directly from the web when I am on Firefox.

It has always worked for about 8 years now. I do not like using Explorer, want to ONLY USE FIREFOX MOZILLA. I did read that there are many users with the same problem lately.

I cleared my cache, ran my c-cleaner, flushed my DNS, cleared all my temp files, updated my Flash, Updated my Java, Checked my security settings and firewalls...rebooted a few dozen times for TWO DAYS, I am exhausted and I am pretty sure that there is some CODE/BUG problem between  Firefox and Photobucket UPLOADER.

What is COMMENT #!

Photobucket uploader does not work in Firefox, I am not the only one with this problem!!! What do you want? Do you know something or not, are you even reading this? I am getting frustrated, this has been going on for days. Firefox suggested I contact you about a bug/bad code and now...I do not know what you want?
