Cannot log in to AskMeFi under MacOS with Firefox. Can under Safari.
On the Ask page, I hit Login, and I get the login page. I log in then go back to Ask and it acts as if it does not know me - as if I am not logged in. On the blue, and on the gray, I am greeted by name in the upper right corner. But not on Ask.
Anyone else seeing this? As stated, it works just fine under Safari.

It sounds like you might be seeing a cached version of the Ask page. First try a Shift + reload on the page in Firefox and see if you're logged in.
If not, hit this page and MeFi Mail me the results. That might give me some more info to work with.

I'm using MacOS and Firefox and I can't log out, but that has more to do with my pesky internet addiction.

You all know it's actually called Mac OS X right?
Anyone remember the Extension Manager? Man, troubleshooting that was fun.

I just tried to boot into 9.2.2, just to see. It crashed. When I restarted the computer, it froze. Then I rebooted into X and all was right with the world. So yeah, I remember EM, and thats why I'm finally clearing Classic of this machine.

I see your Extensions Manager and raise you Conflict Catcher, for a cool $63 bucks.
And it was worth every freaking penny, too.

Chooser, anyone?
(and now I have networked printers, and don't even need them...because I can print locally while connected to a network!)
