Would anybody have any idea why Minermail won't open for me in IE anymore? It just keeps saying Page Not Found, but works fine when I go to it in Firefox. I've cleared the cookies and everything in case there was something in there, but it hasn't done anything. It's worked for since I've been here, just started acting up yesterday. Since I can open it in Firefox, it's not really a big deal, but the format is different for me depending on the browser and I just prefer IE's.

Is it possible you have the wrong password saved or the wrong URL bookmarked?

I had the opposite problem. Needed to delete Firefox completely and can only use IE.

Even IT said that my computer hated Firefox, but had no idea why.

Nah, I go into the actual address bar, minermail.umr.edu, cue 404.

Your computer hates firefox? What version were you using, and what exactly was it doing?

I find that when perfectly good programs start malfunctioning through no fault or error of their own, Windows is utterly the source of the error.

I call this Windows-Menopause, or "Windopause" for short.

When this happens, I know its time to take that installation out back and shoot it in the head. Then i reinstall, and everything works fairly normally, until the computer goes through Windopause again.

C:\Documents and Settings\(your user name)\Application Data\Mozilla <- delete that folder. Reinstall Firefox 2.0. Enjoy.


I'm so glad I kicked the Windows habit.

I upgraded her to 2.0, and her computer basically went on the fritz. IT told her to uninstall it, she did, and didn't have anymore problems. I dunno.
