I'm having a really annoying bug on Gamespot.

 

Every time I try to open the message or the preference box in Opera, the whole Opera shuts down, and I have to quickly close the prefs or message box when I open Opera again.

If I do the same in Firefox, the inbox or the prefs window doesn't even open! It just closes before it's even opened!

I can read my messages in tv.com, but the preferences can't be changed there.

 

Help, anyone?

I recommend clearing your cache/cookies. Maybe you picked up something. I'm thinking it's a browser problem. Have you tried different browsers like netscape and ie.

Well, mine won't load at all, in any browser, it gets about 1/4 on the firefox status bar, and then it closes down.

Does your computer have a Pop-Up Blocker running? It could consider your prefs window a pop-up so it will shut it down every time. If that's what's happening, I'm not sure how to fix it, but someone else might know.

Trend micro cillin is a pain when it comes to programs it either won't allow you to access features or override others. Hopefully, you can change your firewall preferences there.
