Just beginning this evening, I have not been able to consistently click on links. Specifically, the cursor 'arrow' does not turn into a 'pointing finger' when I place it over links, including the 'x' link to close the page. I am able to clink on other tabs, and the problem does not occur when I am using Internet Explorer. After a period of time (usually from a half minute to a minute or so), I am able to click again, but then the problem inevitably returns.

I had been using an earlier version of Firefox (3.5-something), so I immediately installed the newest version (3.6), as well as the Adobe flashplayer update, but the problem remains.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."

If not, see this: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+theme...
