no images (often), no captcha (some sites) - all work well in IE
I've FF 12 and W8 (brand new !!) installed on my laptop (brand new too !) Antivirus : avast free
but this problem was always present ... fro the start
no downloading if captcha necessary (the only sites working are rapidshare, hotfile and ruyshare) : the problem is that i don't see the captcha box ... and if I click on the button, yhe same page reappears, saying wrong captcha ... but still no captcha visible. no questionning with site intern questionnary if captcha is needed
on forum, images appears the first time, but that's all no second time ... (real player is not installed)

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
toutes les indications concernant FF ont été suivies ... aucune n'a fonctionné Les problèmes persistent !
Je regarderai demain (ou mercredi) pour le démarrage Windows en mode sans echecs ...
malgré tout, merci pour la réponse !
You can also try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":

- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
what's the profil for ? Is it necessary to have one ? I didn't create a profil ....
sur les conseils d'un ami, j'ai désinstallé FF 5 ainsi que tous les mises à jour ... et j'ai téléchargé le dernier FF (21) et je l'ai installé !
miracle ... tout fonctionnait !
j'ai téléchargé alors xmarks pour mes marque-pages ... et pour vérifier, je me suis connecté sur mes forums préférés tout va bien !!!
sauf que 1H plus tard sans avoir fait aucune autre modification, le même problèmes apparaissaient : lien non cliquable, plus d'images, plus de frames ...
Je songe très sérieusement à changer de navigateur...
Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
Did you check any advanced settings in your security software (firewall, anti-virus) to make sure that nothing is blocked?
This morning, I uninstalled my FF21 (installed yesterday evening) and reinstalled it without any modification (no xmarks, no options modifications)
A like yesterday, first all seems to work and then, all the problems reappears !
For your question cor-el : I have avast installed, and the windows8 firewall
But I don't believe one of these is the reason because IE and Chrome work fine ... I just 'hate' their lay-out that's why I don't want to work with them ...
Precisions : the avast anti-virus is the free one ... and a avast technician certified that the problem is not one caused by their program ...
