  Hello, I started the above forum thread and there seems to be some serious Browser issues going on which is no longer compatible with WordPress.

  You need to take a look at this Forum link as it clearly outlines what is happening.

  I don’t have any problems with Firefox 9.0.1 myself.

  Can you please check with all of your add-ons disabled?

  Hi. I have gone over to Chrome now and am experiencing no problems whatsoever. I even have the bar up above my own blog which I didn’t before and I was so easily able to subscribe to those 2 blogs I was trying.

  I will try and disable all the add-ons on Firefox and see what happens and come back on this one as maybe it was one of them that caused the problem as I have tight security add-ons.

  I have just reinstalled Firefox 9.0.1 with no add-ons whatsoever and it sure enough has worked.

  What I will do in future is keep an eye on and by process of elimination work out which of my add-ons was causing the problem.Somehow I think it might have been the ‘Better Privacy’ add-on or similar.

  Chrome is fine and Mozilla is fine, just have to get the add-ons on Mozilla tweaked.

  Thanks for the update! If you’re able to see which add-on caused the problem, we’d love to know about it.

  Glad to hear everything’s working now :)

  Sorry I can’t be of much use. I uninstalled Mozilla and then reinstalled it and re-added most of the add-ons I could remember,though not all,and it works absolutely fine.

  Maybe it just needed a fresh re- installation as I have played around with so many add-ons. The “Better Privacy” add-on I thought may have been the problem, I just installed it to check and my wordpress site is still ok. So I really cannot give a definite answer.

  It really is a mystery. It even no longer has the tab in the bottom right but the WP toolbar. I just don’t get it. All I can put it down to is the above re-installation I did.
