Firefox display issue
 
Hi
Im currently running the latest version of Firefox on Win 7 64bit. For some random reason it has suddenly started displaying in what I can only describe as WAP like on a mobile phone :-S
Any ideas?

I had so many issues with the last version of FF I was forced back into the cluches of IE albeit disguised as Slimbrowser.

I still have FF installed but I can't remember the last time I tried using it.

A pity but there you are. :(

Any chance of you showing us a screen shot. I would be flabbergasted if it would help me give you a solution but it just may help another member figure out what is happening. :)

I tried FF4 for the first time this week and found it hopeless. Clunky, preferences page not displaying properly, none of my extensions working. I reverted back to 3.whatever but then decided to give Chrome a try. I was astounded by how quick it was. I've been using it ever since. The tragedy is, I remember when Firefox first appeared, and what a nippy animal it was. As of right now, I can't see myself using FF again. They are going to have to implement some pretty massive improvements before I have it back as my default browser.

I was astounded by how quick slimbrowser appeared to be after using FF for a while. I tried FF4 when it was beta and knew it wasn't for me.
