Why is it...

Post by browner »

Same thing happens on the BBC homepage and now i've noticed it on other sites...any ideas?

Try the settings in Firefox under

apparently there was a bug in FF 3.6.5 which has been fixed in later versions. I have 3.6.3 and I can't replicate it. The latest (stable) version is 3.6.8, although there are beta release for version 4
