Yesterday, this forum got to where it kept giving me an error...

503 Service Unavailable

The server is temporarily busy, try again later!

===

So, today I got tired of that and just thought I'd try IE and see it works. And it did. No errors. AND... wow, this forum is way faster on IE. What could be wrong with my Firefox? I have the latest version.

    A busy server has NOTHING to do with your browser.

      Then, why do I continue to get that error in FF and not in IE?

        I'm not sure what your system is doing.

        I have started a new virtual machine with a clean install of FF and everything is working fine.

        My main machine is running FF and I have not seen any errors.

    Because FF is always so much better than IE. See, it's not an FF problem that it's only working in IE. No! It's proof that MS has everything so messed up that FF can't do what it's supposed to do.

    Again, it's not FF's fault FF isn't showing the WF properly, it is IE's fault that IE is working properly.

    There are only three things you need to know:

    1. FF is the best.

    2. IE sucks.

    3. Mac is the ONLY real choice for a computer because they are perfect and anybody who has a PC is an idiot. (Me included, apparently)

      LOL! That's a good one Michael! Although my FF is moving kinda slow today but I can't stand IE. It must be IE's fault though!

    I was getting that error too. I cleared my cache and cookies and it did the trick.

    livemusic,
    Log out and log back into the Warrior Forum and the problem should go away.

    That is the reply I received from the Help Desk here a while back when I was
    having the same problem.

    Worked for me!

    Have a Great Day!
    Michael

    IE gives me many more errors and just randomly closes down sometimes on me. Seems to have gotten worse over the years. But Firefox has also given me trouble in the past several months. It's still good, but not like it used to be.

    Got an error too a couple of days ago. Everytime I tried to post a message here in WF, an error comes up that I'm not entering enought characters or the limit for each post/comment. I tried using Google Chrome and WF worked just fine there. Got help from HelpDesk and just informed me to clear the cache and now I'm back to FF.

    What plugins do you have installed for Firefox?
