After upgrade to 3.6.8 suddenly FF fails to open 4shared.com no matter what I do, but it open in IE tab or in IE itself with no problem. It only opens in FF when I clear all the cookies of 4shared. It works for a while then again & again. I tried safe mode but got same result. Any help ???

Opens fine for me with Firefox 3.6.8 and Opera 10.53 on Windows, and with Firefox 3.6.6 on Ubuntu.
