Problems posting

I get this message:

"Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error."

whenever I post on here and another forum I am on. In fact not every time, just mostly.
I think it started when I reinstalled firefox to try and speed up my pc.
If I go back and press POST again, it works, any ideas?

See it worked OK when I posted this :D

    I have firefox set up to clear everything I think, whenever it shuts down. And it's been doing it for a few weeks now.

    I keep hoping it will grow out of it :D

    And the other thing is, now I think about it, is that I don't always log in first time, sometimes I have to do it twice. Must be connected somehow. Started at the same time.

    If it were me - if clear cache including passwords does not work, then I would

    backup bookmarks, make a note any special addons
    uninstall firefox compelete, delete the program folder
    re-install a fresh clean installation and import bookmarks (and enable any addons you installed one at a time).
    only takes a few minutes to do.

    It seems that ever since I accepted an improved version of Fire Fox, I can only use proper English and text in my posts here.
    Other sites are also affected to varying degrees since I clicked on Version 3.5.1.

    Please could you explain any possible remedy measures in easy - -to - - understand words, as cookies still conjure up pictures of chocolate biscuits in my elderly brain!

    You mean you have [check spelling] enabled? It doesn't stop you tyyypingsdf rubbish, it just underlines it in red.
    I'm not really sure what you mean.

    I did make an attempt on the later version, but nothing seems to have happened. According to the Fire Fox web site, there are security issues with the version I have, although I obviously did not know that at the time.

    As to the spell check; if I use abbreviations, real names, try to add bold - that sort of thing - I get the same message as the first person had. I really have no idea why it should be happening.
