Thx Curt! Chris, luckily for me Dell still offers XP on new computers, so that's what I stuck with when I bought this new one this past winter. Vista sucks!

Flashes back and forth between Google and FA. Says loading/transferring data or something of that nature. I am at work at the moment so I cannot check for sure. I have only added Script Blocker to the Firefox beta version that I am using. Everything else is standard. I got notification of an update being available this morning but have not loaded it yet. We'll see if anything changes with that.

I do not have the Google toolbar attached to my FF, just Yahoo. Ok, I do not know why it is happening. It is annoying as heck, but there must be some addware, a plug-in within FF and Google (FFs usual homepage) or a module that relays information back to Google or another application. Sorry about the Vista thing. I was wondering if you had a system which came with it. They offered it "free" to me and I refused. I dread buying my next computer.... On the other hand, I am glad that this thread has some uses. I was just PO'd at the ammount of spam we get and wanted to share the stupidity we get to see.

The only thing I could think of that it might be was Ad-Block, but I disabled it and it still acted the same way. I'm running the latest version of FF (not beta). Interestingly, my status bar shows the page going between FA and Google VERY rapidly (like 3-4 times a second), like it's frozen between the two (or searching). Very weird!
