I'm using the same version of firefox under win xp, and had no problem. When I do sometimes have a problem loading a site in Firefox, I try with an Internet Explorer tab (I have the firefox add-on "IE Tab") with a right-click. That usually works. Then you can report on the problem with your normal setup.

Subject: [vpFREE] It must be me...
I've been trying to access vpfree2.com for the past few days and all I get is "connecting. .." but it never loads the page. Admittedly I am using an unpopular OS/Browser (ubuntu 8.04/Firefox 3.0.11), but vpfree2.com is the ONLY site where this occurs.
Any ideas why this would happen? Is there a setting I need to adjust? I already checked my firewalls/IP Filters (shut them off and tried again to no avail) but still nada. I'd post this directly to the webmaster there, but I can't access the web site..
