Can't view website

[Dave Siciliano]

I can't view Bloomberg.com since getting Firefox 3. Any suggestions? I go here many times a day. Can get it with Explorer. I get this message.

Dave,

I did a quick Google on that sentence and found this thread:

Seems as if clearing the private data, cache, and cookies cleared the problem for some users. I liked this post the best:

I agree - cleared private data, cache and cookies and now I can read Bloomberg.com. I dont know technically why such a simple thing like this would work. Thought clearing private data was for security reasons. Kind of like hitting the side of a TV set in the old days to clear up the picture.

Thanks! I'll give that a go.

What? Clearing the data, or hitting it on the side with your hand?
