Most of the time when I try to go to AOL mail, I get this message: ZOIDS! ERROR 8 C0FE180D Report ID: 30580-mail-20111110-134054 Problem loading application Uh-oh! Mail’s having trouble loading. Sorry for the delay! Click here to try again.

If mail continues to get hung up, click here to sign into the Basic version. Basic delivers a great mail experience on slower Internet connections, such as dial-up.

Plus along with that message there is the picture of the weird looking doll made of wires and stuff. Is there a way to fix this? I like Firefox, but cannot continue trying to use it if I cannot get my mail. Thank you for your help.

Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.

If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.

If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support. http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/support/
