Hey, do you guys ever use the mobile version? When I was on vacation, it would ask me when I got on at the hotel on my Nook if I wanted to use it.

If it is, restarting is guaranteed to shut it down. Then clear all cookies and cache.

Funny thing about that is that when I open the program, nothing shows on the screen...the little hourglass shows beside the cursor for a couple of seconds then goes away and nothing comes up on the screen.

Couldn't be better, Pat. Nice moderate temps we're having. Has it dried out for you at the plant?

You could try starting in Safe Mode, then uninstall FF, then restart normally and reinstall.

Is this the same machine that had the strange message recently?

Nope, still surrounded by water. At least we got the new aquadam installed, so water isn't right up to the plant. They are supposed to start lowering releases from the dams at the end of this month. I'm hoping we can restart our refueling outage by the end of next month.

Got your hunting trips to Wyoming planned out yet?

Okay, I was just wondering, since the normal version worked just fine for me.

The humidity must be miserable.

I can live with the humidity, just as long as it's warm. I'd prefer to be without it, but I'll take it. This would be a lot worse if it was winter, I can't imagine making that mile long walk when it's cold and windy.

Well I did all that stuff, and it seems to be working ok so far FTE is still slow, but other sites are much faster than they were.
