I have both firefox and chrome installed on my computer...

I prefer to use firefox but for some reason I can not view the movies on bbc sport and can't see people's avatars on WOS with firefox

With Chrome I can...hmmmm???

Any suggestions?

    I find that blizzards web site causes firefox to crash.

    firefox is not good for bathroom taps :)

    there are settings which will mess up on firefox.. I had to change a few on another forum... OR a clean install might fix it..

    if you have a pop up blocker that might be another reason .. I have watched bbc things via firefox so know it's ok...

    also maybe check for an update of your flash? or firefox in general..

    there are 2 things, software and informer and filehippo update checker you might wanna check with

    also if your going via a proxy or a none UK IP it knows .. that might be another reason

    Firefox is certainly a far more matured browser than Chrome...

    Maxthon is probably the best browser I looked at though. You can find it at: http://www.maxthon.com/

    I prefer Chrome. However on my Pentium 4 computer at work BBCs video's crash the Flash plugin on it.

    For normal interweb browsing I use Chrome as it's just so quick. For development Firefox.

    Took me a long time to get away from IE. Can't believe I used the kludgy piece of crap for so long.

    Used Firefox for ages, until it got to the point where the auto-completion on the location bar would hang the browser for longer than it took to actually type the URL myself. Chrome all the way now...

    I always hear about bugs and stability issues in firefox, but I've never seen any of it.

    I've usually got 5 or 6 tabs open for hours on end and I've got about 10 add-ons running all the time. Never had a problem.

    But Chrome, bloody hell that's fast!
    Oh, no. Every time you turn up something monumental and terrible happens.
    I don’t think I have the stomach for it.
