I've tried updating Java, Flash, Silverlight (it would really be nice to know for sure what Google and Yahoo Finance use). But they all were updated. I cleared my cache, tried restarting in safe mode (which is ironic because if the plugin isn't loaded, how is the site going to display the chart), hit Ctrl+F5, flipped off the monitor, but nothing is allowing the charts to display. I had previously allowed Adobe to update Reader and restart my computer, which I think led to the blank financial charts. Now I have to use Chrome or IE.

I've been using Firefox almost exclusively for years and didn't have problems with the Yahoo! Finance interactive charts until version 15. I just updated to 16.0.1 last evening and it didn't fix anything. I've updated Flash, tried <ctrl>f5 - nothing helps. Something was done in a recent update to create the problem. It would certainly be nice if this was undone and fixed.

Actually, I wouldn't mind downgrading a couple versions. I didn't have any of the problems I'm having now. I'm getting to the point that if something doesn't look right, I'm bouncing over to Chrome.

Please don't let FF slide into the same mess as IE!
