Re: anyone else with this problem

Same here -- works fine in firefox 3.0.3 for ME.

Some questions:
1) Are you going through a proxy (at work, for example?)
2) Do you have any firefox add-ons installed? Try disabling them and
ensure firefox is restarted.
3) Does it do the same thing in "safe-mode"? $ firefox -safe-mode
4) If that doesn't work, see what content-type is being sent back by using CURL.
$ export http_proxy=http://my.proxy:8080 # if you need a proxy to
access internet?
$ curl -i -A "Mozilla/5.0" http://bloomberg.com 2>/dev/null | grep -i
'^Content-type'

OK, thanks for the feedback. Knowing it's working ok for you made me
try that stuff, and eventually led me to reboot. Upon boot up, I got
caught by a fsck failure and had to do the whole fsck. Apparently, some
files were bad and now seem to be fixed. So, it wasn't ff, just some
broken files.

Thanks for the replies.

regards,

Paul
