on a MacBook Pro with no problems. What version of FireFox and what Mac OS are you running. You might download a new version of FireFox. Even though we like to think it never happens sometimes applications get errors that cause trouble.

There may be a problem with your OS. I hope not but it does happen.

edited to add- are you having the same problem with Safari? I don't care for Safari but that's my wife's browser.
