Observations using Firefox

penrhyn

After ridding my PC of a trojan last week I've started using Firefox and am getting on fine, and with a couple of addons (Googlebar and Autofill) have the same functionallity as IE6.
If anyone else is using FX can you tell me why it won't load certain pages, it displays a URL cannot be found check address alert. When if I go back to IE6 the page is loaded normally.
I've also added a Open target link in IE which works around the problem but dosen't explain it.

Funny, when I went back to the sites that would not load this morning they were fine?!! Sods law I suppose. Anyway went to the forum suggested, and found this thread: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=243793&sid=5c700dd2deb41d6625ca630670a94491

I've followed the advise from the Ed-Miester
i.e.Try turning off the IPv6.
type about:config in the Navbar and hit Enter
Preference name=network.dns.disableIPv6 - right-click and toggle to true
Restart Firefox.

Thanks for the advise
