Default FireFox People...Help.

Ok so I just DL'd firefox so I could try it out. For some reason my multimedia buttons on my keyboard that shortcut to websites no longer work. Any ideas?

I set FireFox to default, and imported everything as well. Resetting the sites through the keyboard program does no good.

Guess you'r going to have to make all that extra effort to move your hand from the keyboard to the mouse and click.



Try troubleshooting on the site?

Tip: Don't use FF. It's still in preview mode. I was just too tired of having certain sites not work, trouble with plug-ins, extra steps to take to get it working like Avant, etc. I'm sticking with Avant for now until FF can show me some great benefits.

it's a problem with the button mappings. technically has nothing to do with firefox.

those buttons are just mapped to a command, it's something with that command or software that isn't working.

You're complaining about Firefox but you use a browser that comes with a build number? :P

IE has a build number? Hmm....I didn't know this. Avant is just "cover" for IE. Firefox is a standalone browser with compatiblity issues and I've seen them first hand, multiple times.
