ive been using firefox for a while now. (currently v2.0.0.11)

recently when i click to open images from a link, instead of firefox displaying it, it makes me download it or open it with a viewer. and these are just standard .jpg, its happened a bunch of times on 12oz.

 

anyone know why?

 

i think it's in tools/prefs

browse around there

What kind of computer do you have?

 

If you have a PC with Windows, go get a copy of WinRAR.

 

http://filehippo.com/download_winrar/

 

Install it, and when it opens up it asks what packages you want it to open. Select all of them.

 

Then go back, and click on the .rar file.

 

It should open in a new WinRAR window. Highlight all those tracks, and right click. Select, "Decompress to desktop" and let it do its thing.

 

All your mp3s should be on the desktop now. Put them wherever you normally save music.

 

On a Mac, Stuffit should automatically handle .rar files.

okay...so im using firefox and i regularly clear the cookies....

 

for some reason, everytime i try and save a pic, firefox completely freezes until the download is complete......so each time i catch a fr8 by my dude in metalheads, i am afraid to save it cause firefox is acting up!!

 

is there a solution to this?

 

it doesnt happen in IE 7, but i like FF better so.....yea.

 

holler
