This has been happening to me too at the All Music Guide. at www.allmusic.com 

I have only yesterday installed the websum extension to Firefox.
I installed it on my one desktop. and also on an Acer Netbook.
It seems it works on one of them better than the other.

Could it be related to the version of Firefox?

I did not read before one version was better than the other.
On the desktop, I installed the extension and during the process my pc went 
back and seemed like it was re-installing the program, and when it was finished 
it said "you are now running mozilla firefox versio 3.015 with the vissum."  
and on the other one, it was running the latest version, 3.5 something and the 
extension did not go through that.  And now, it seems that possibly the 3.015 
is working a bit better than with the newer version.  But both have done this 
business of opening multiple sites without me ever telling it to.  Kind of 
crazy.

So that is a problem. But there are many navigational things that seem pretty 
darned slick, and I'm hoping to learn more from you all.

Thanks.
Rik

  You might find life easier if you use I E for Netflicks.

    Hi,

    I actually was able to go into the tools menu and fix that problem, thanks. 
 But it's crashing on me quite a bit when going into Netflix.  I have Access 
Bridge installed, and had heard that was supposed to help the problem.  Any 
ideas on crash preventative?  In my short association with Firefox, it seems to 
only have trouble when I do a search on the Netflix page.

    Thanks.

    Judy

      Perhaps you have multiple homepages set to open at launch? I have 3 pages 
for example set to open when I fire up firefox.

      Hi,

       

      Am still having problems with Firefox opening multiple tabs when 
launched.  Have been in the tools/options menus but don't see anything about 
disabling tabbed browsing as in Internet Explorer.

       

      How to get Firefox to only open the site requested.

       

      Thanks.

       

      BTW, am using Windows Vista and Jaws 10

       

      Judy
