My ISP is Brighthouse Cable & since I've switched over to FF for my browser I am always having server issues & constant web page freezing. According to the Brighhouse web site it gives "best effort" to FF support & I have fought with them over this since 2008 & I am over it now.. I will have to switch to a different browser since this issue between FF & Brighthouse is an ongoing thing because this PC is only a year old & I'm concerned about all this freezing damaging it.. Not sure how an ISP can pick & choose which browser it wants to give better service to but I'm tired of fighting with them & tired of all these error messages "FF can't find the server" garbage ..

I only have one other browser which is IE & I never use it.. However, I have already tested it on previous occasions & it works fine.. IE is the preferred browser for my ISP Brighthouse just not mine..
