    All of a sudden, MLSNet causes my Firefox session to crash. Has anyone else had this problem?

    All the time. I'm using IE exclusively for MLSnet.com now.

    Doesn't work for me frequently enough. I have to bring up task manager and end the program, then start it up again. Once I shut it down and reopen firefox, the website opens just fine.

    Plus, MLSLive doesn't work in Firefox for me. Anyone else get that too?

    It crashed firefox for the first time on me today. Once it reloaded it was fine, including MLSlive

    I have the same problems. The other day I tried opening it about 10 times in a row and it crashed my browser every single time.

    It happens to me every once out of four times or so; it will freeze up, and I'll have to close firefox using task manager. I'm glad it isn't something exclusive to me, I was getting worried.

    I was having this problem last week. It suddenly started working again after a few days though...

    It's working just fine on mine. It slows things down for a few seconds when the scoreboard area loads up on the right, but that's just a temporary hiccup.

    Glad to know its not just me. I'm constantly forcing quits on my G5, and restarting. It's really annoying.

    You can switch between IE and Firefox in the same window with that addon. Firefox crashes all of my MLSNet videos, so I just open them in an IE tab now. I'd just use IE for it, but it's too slow on my computer for my liking.
    I'm no tech wizard at all...someone told me about it.
    Hope it helps! :)

    Edit: You'll see a little Firefox logo on the bottom right. Click on that and it switches to IE. It's easier than clicking on the tab.

    Started crashing for me after the last firefox update (.14). Locks up about every 2 of 3 attempts.

    never had any issues other then slow load, and certain parts of the page not loading correctly.

    been using firefox 3 beta5 (last beta before official release this summer), and the performance increase and stability is fantastic, particularly on javascript heavy pages like mlsnet.com.

    here's the download page if anyone's interested:

    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html

    you won't lose any bookmarks (most settings are transferred right over), and the 2.XX installed version isn't affected either, so you can use them side by side.

    DCUnited.com works fine for me. I thought the problem would be universal across all MLS sites, but I guess not.

    I just downloaded Firefox 3 Beta 5 and I highly recommend getting it if you haven't already. Much faster than previous versions and as of now, no problems with mlsnet.

    No. But last night about the time you posted this, I wasn't able to get to MLSnet using Firefox. Works fine now (and even last night after about a 5 minute wait).

    None of the team sites, I believe, have Flash taking up most of the space.
