I recently installed Firefox 6 and since then my homepage URL is getting an extra forward slash, /, added to the end of the URL string. I don't want this to happen and cannot figure out why Firefox is doing it. My settings in IIS are fine and IE isn't doing it. Here is the URL http://www.kyndoutdoors.com

Do you mean that you see two forward slashes or only one?

Is that causing a problem with loading the website?

Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.

  • Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

What is happening is http://mysite.com is showing up as http://mysite.com//

It's very concerning. The refresh instructions didn't do anything to resolve the issue.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
