I've suffered several total browser failures in Firefox with this banner so have removed all extensions to see if this fixes it. I like the festive look, so I'm hoping that this will fix the issue for me. If anyone else has the same problem (and I have only been using extensions lauded by people on these forums) then the solution might be to uninstall them like I have.

I've had the same problem so I used adblock to stop it from showing.

I've had the problem too, couldn't navigate on the site at all and took ages to load. I've used Adblock as well.

I am using Firefox and have no problems at all. But I am also not using any extensions, so a clean Firefox should do the trick.

Here are my extensions;

Adobe Contribute Toolbar (really need to uninstall this one as it was a test install anyway!)
AI Roboform Toolbar for Firefox
All-in-One Gestures
All-in-One Sidebar
Fasterfox
Fission
FlashGot
Google Browser Sync
IE Tab
NoScript
PDF Download
Talkback

Have been using the snow applet for two years now on another site and never had any problems or any reports of problems.

However, it's only a bit of festive fun so if you are getting issues with it then it can go.

No problems here except the yellowish panel on th top that pops up every time I go into a thread or out or whatever, and tells me to install the missing plug-in to see the snow.. Which I can't due to the fact that I have no admin-powers whatsoever on this computer (at work :)).. bugger.. I can't even see the snow :sad:

I have had severe difficulties since the snow was installed. Thought the plugins were causing the problem but it may just be my PC. If I try to exit WoW with a FF window open it hangs my screen. Voice comms via TS still works, I just cannot click anythign on-screen. I have to shut down FF before existing WOW. Wierd. I've uninstalled all plugins and this does not seem to have helped. :sad:

Only one thing for it - have to buy a new computer....../scurries off to look at 680i motherboards and an nVidia 8800 :norty:
