Title: Just out of the shop
Post by: edward on February 02, 2013, 09:29:46 am

 Got the wifes computer out of the shop yesterday, and it was wiped clean, my question is that it was set up as Mosilla firefox, and she likes to play games on Facebook, which seems hard to connect to on firefox, she  had IE before that, is there any way to connect to facebook from firefox, She had verizon/Yahoo as home page, should I leave it as firefox and is this a good site. Thanks for any suggestions.  Edward

I would first check you have the most up to date version of firefox and if you have and it's not working properly there's no reason why you can't download other browsers such as google chrome etc and have both, you could then download a new version of firefox delete the old version and reload the new one which might clear the issue it's worth a try.
