i was still getting that alert about the url being invalid and it would freeze and i had to constantly reboot. i switched to chrome a few weeks ago, i feel like i have 2 new laptops, it is so fast and very easy to use, the best thing is that i have never gotten that alert again, i think it had to be an ff bug. i have not gotten any updates in 3 weeks, does chrome automatically update or is it invisible? i have one big problem. on the vista laptop i cannot find how to allow popups at pogo. you can't play there unless you do that. on the xp at pogo it asked me and i clicked it and it works great. i went to tools looked at everything there, then went to options and i cannot find it. i hope someone can help me with it. thx. ellie
