Re: Firefox crash when accessing ANZ internet banking
I can login OK, but Im using Feisty and I havent updated anything, including firefox, in a fair while. I have noticed that I cant use Bpay view on the anz website. It gives the bad ol' incompatible browser excuse. Commonwealth works fine though. You could change banks. I heard thats meant to be easy these days ?? ;) mike David Whyte wrote: Hi All, I have found that when I try and access the internet banking site on either of my Gutsy machines it causes firefox to crash. The ANZ home page is fine, the internet banking login popup is fine, but when I enter my credentials and hit the login button, firefox locks up. Anyone here with ANZ and having the same problem? I am pretty sure this was working fine on my Gutsy laptop before the weekend! Cheers, Whytey -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au

Which Java plugins (installed by the browser, by APT/Synaptic/Add-Remove, and what versions?) are you using? (To find out, fire up Firefox and type about:plugins into the location bar). You can also check to see if you have the Sun JRE installed by typing dpkg -l | grep jre at the command line. It might be worth your time to delete the plugins in either your ~/.mozilla/firefox/profilename/plugins or /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins directories and reinstall them. If you had a working system up until a week ago, did you do some system updates at that point? And if you did, have you tried doing a system-wide package upgrade since then? -Dan -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au

I have returned to OE to send this - to illustrate what I want. This email came up in a discussion I had offline with a few friends and all of us agreed that plain text emails are just the way to go... and if you have to use HTML ideally don't specify the typeface besides serif or sans-serif. Finally, for the love of all that is good and holy, please refrain from using Comic Sans MS for *anything ever*, other than perhaps comics (for which there are better typefaces anyway). ^_^ The main reasons for not using HTML I think were outlined in the earlier emails, but they essentially comes down to two things. Firstly, security: it is possible to create malicious HTML code within emails (this is in fact more an issue for Outlook Express users since the product is quite poor regarding security) and it's larger and unnecessary. I can understand that some organisations desire styled HTML newsletter emails but that's about the extent of it. Besides this font issue (which I hope we've convinced you shouldn't be an issue...) how are you finding Thunderbird by the way? (I've never asked anyone who has just moved from Outlook Express to Thunderbird). Ta and toodles. -Pascal Seems simple but . . . . . .

Ie conflict with Mozilla downloads?
I successfully downloaded Thunderbird and have been using it. IE closes down when confronted with a subsequent attempt to download a dictionery for Thunderbird. So I figured that I should download Firefox and use it to download my requirements but IE jacks up at that too!

I just looked at Google ( search terms thunderbird dictionaries download windows ) and found this page http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/thunderbird/dictionaries.html which seems to suggest that you can drag and drop the download URL directly into Thunderbird itself using its extensions manager.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by this. Are you saying that IE didn't allow you to download the Firefox program file? But assuming you do actually have Firefox installed, it sounds like your issue may be resolved by ensuring Firefox is set as your default browser. You are asked this during Firefox installation, but if you still have problems later go into the Firefox settings (ToolsOptions on Windows, I think) and look for checkboxes related to making Firefox your default web browser. Set them correctly and you should be good to go. -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
Re: Ie conflict with Mozilla downloads?
Thanks everyone. I got it resoved. Eventually I found the FF dialogue box hidden under the IE Closing Down warning. This time I ignored it and dragged it aside to discover FF was indeed downloading.
