Firefox not working in UCD

insert-gear · 2009-09-28 22:58:13

Im going to go into ILTG with it tomorrow, just wondering if its affected anyone else? No pages will load in firefox, can only use internet explorer. Updated to version 8 so I could actually use it, and they send out an email saying I have to uninstall version 8 cos its incompatible. Facepalm and a half

You have to set the proxy settings for Firefox. It won't use the global OS settings. Just set it to automatically detect settings like in IE.
