The unpleasant symptoms I'm seeing now in trying to navigate around DU since the recent

update are as follows: I run WIN7 Home Premium and use Firefox for my browser...

1. I keep DU open in two tabs. In one tab i keep Latest Threads open. I use the other tab to access
My Posts and The Lounge.

2. Using the Latest Threads tab results in difficulty with the normal "previous page" function and right
now the only way I can navigate that page is to open each op that I want to view in new tab, then
close it to go back to the Latest Threads page. That works but hey, it's not normal!

3. When I go to the tab where I access My Posts or The Lounge I experience no problems at all with
navigation...

None of this was happening before the recent DU and Firefox updates...

Go figure. I'm not a tech guy, I'm a tech user and can usually figger things out. I'm not done with this yet.

The monsoon is here in Duke City. Yes, the monsoon here in New Mexico is something I've heard

about since we moved here in 2005. I finally did a little research and found out that this is really a
THING!

from website: "New Mexico and other areas across the Southwest U.S. are affected by the North American Monsoon System (NAMS) every summer, and the “Monsoon Season” is designated as the period lasting from June 15th through September 30th."

Now as a child I experienced the monsoon of southeast asia in West Pakistan and India and we
typically get very little rain here in New Mexico compared to what falls in southeast asia. No matter, here any rain is welcome!
