I want to visit anplumbing.com using FireFox, the home page opens, but it's not the same homepage as I see using Explorer. Continuing with FF I click on the "continue to the store" button and it opens with what looks to be the correct web page but with an error 404. Is this a web page problem or a FF issue? Thanks, Craig
