Unable to read my online mail in virgin media , unable to access planet rock . May be others havent tried. Both occur in either add ons enabled or in safe mode. Not a problem accessing these sites if I use different browser such as IE or opera.

Also firefox crashes immediately I open online game runescape which uses java but only if my os is ubuntu 10.10 , was ok in ubuntu 10.04 

Not at all happy in fact very unhappy. Advice anyone please.

Thanks Rep

Are there secret hidden updates to firefox, or is this something to do with my isp? Or is it something else entirely? Whats going on? thanks for reading I really dont understand why this has happened rep
