This couldn't be related to any Fx extensions could it? Javascript is needed obviously.

For those with Fx problems it might just be worth trying Fx in its safe mode.

Just as I had suspected this forum is preventing me from posting links because I'm using firefox. I downloaded a plugin called User Agent Switcher and masqueraded as Netscape 4.8 to test this theory. Another thing I had noticed was that if I switch my identity from IE to Netscape the toolbars are different so it's clearly delivering content depending on the browser used.

Richard, it's got to be because of Fx + something else. I happily use Fx to the forum from 3 different machines (2xXP and 1xME) without any probs at all.

Hi Gil, I don't have any plugins running on this copy of firefox apart from Adblock so as far as I can tell the problem seems to suggest the forum software is at fault. I'm sure the URL button had worked in the past but this was before the upgrade (after it got hacked). It is interesting thought that lying about what browser I'm using seems to bypass the problem.

Yes, i too don't have plugings installed. But the problem is still there. Looking on Richard post i see that for some reason this forum-software not like Opera and other not IE browsers

I also had problems with URL button two days ago, it just wouldn't work at all.
Yesterday, it worked well (to my surprise). What has changed ? Nothing on my browser, as far as I know ...
Firefox 1.5.0.3

Richard, clutching at straws here but just to be sure AdBlock is not an issue did you try disabling it (or whitelisting sysinternals.com)? FWIW my browser request report from http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/aboutyou.ch is

You might want to compare.

To temporarily disable any extension/theme etc. in Firefox, that is, launch it in "safe mode", use : firefox.exe -safe-mode
