I'm back to bug y'all again. After taking your advise I'm using Mozilla and I like it very much. However, my daughter's cannot access Facebook now because it says I don't have Javascript enabled, even though I DO! How do they switch back to IE so they can use it or how do I fix Mozilla so it will work? Has anyone encountered this? Help!
 
Enable Mozilla Firefox 2.x 1. Open the option preferences
* For Windows Users:
From the menu bar select Tools >> Options...
* For Macintosh Users:
From the Firefox menu, select Preferences...
2. From the Options window, select the Content icon. Check the "Load images automatically", "Enable JavaScript" and "Enable Java" checkboxes.
3. Reload the current page.

This is where I can't figure things out... I've done all the enabling, I've downloaded java applets just in case something was missing and everything is checked where it's enabled etc but it won't work for Facebook... I don't get it.

That is odd...can she get to the main screen?I can use facebook without an issue.
 
...and have you unchecked block pop-ups?
 
I get to Facebook fine too with Firefox! I love Firefox! It drives me crazy to have to use IE at work.
 
Hey Diane, since this thread popped up...any luck yet? Did you try a reinstall of Firefox yet?
