TOOLBAR dissappears upon logout of MSN HOTMAIL...
« on: July 21, 2010, 07:59:07 AM »
Does anyone have this scenario?????

I'm running the newest LXDE....Firefox 3.66...  : upon logging out of MSN HOTMAIL it goes to the msn homepage - WITH NO NAVIGATION TOOLBAR!!!  I'm thinking its a firefox or Microsoft thing...not so much PCLOS .... I still have the X to close out to get to my desktop - but its a hassle not being able to go to my home page of firefox start {google}...  It just started with the firefox 3.66, and the newest LXDE....

Is a setting somewhere in FF out of place ???  Or is MSN screwed up???  any other of my emails/web pages  seem to work fine... ???

.......No, sorry not to explain-  Its a NEW install of LXDE...nothing added - only updated immediately thru synap---via repos... 
 went online ,   
- went to a few common websites...   
-went to MSN , then HOTmail...

-logged out - it automatically goes back to the MSN homepage, and has no upper toolbar.

I tried this scenario several times....but had just noticed TODAY there is a new Firefox : 3.67 so I will wait till  PCLOS gets it into its repos...  If it continues with the NEW version - then i will be more concerned. :-\

FF 3.6.7 is in the repos now if that doesn't cure it you could try loading Firefox with a new "clean" profile and see if it still occurs.

Just in case  :D

#firefox -P <enter>

is the command to run a new profile

....Thank you guys for the replies....

I've deduced its a MSN thing because it happens on WINDOWS XP machines also....with firefox 3.68.

Or I thought it could be a Firefox thing with MSN code - but it does it in Opera also...

The Internet Has been CHANGING a LOT in the last 30 days - with many servers and other Website places doing changes...

Maybe it has to do with Microsofts' #7 compatibility , or something...  ???

I hope Linux doesn't try to MIMIC that BS of a system; Many of my senior clients prefer SIMPLICITY over GLITZ... ::)
