I've had this same problem with Firefox 3 betas and both RC1 and RC2 (on PC). The only site where I've experienced any problems is on X5world.

Each time, I de-installed the version 3 beta / release-candidate and gone back to version 2.

I'm going to try the new Firefox 3 but, based on what I've read here, I'm not optimistic. I'm also not optimistic that Firefox will have this problem resolved anytime soon. Firefox 3 has been around in beta form for a while.

I have been on FF for months, and this hasnt changed...been thru 4 versions now. But as I said, I use dozens of forums and this is the only one with problems.

This probably explains part of the issue - http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...72#post1582172

I suspect some of the other sites you frequent are using vBulletin 3.7, whereas we are still using version 3.5.3. We have quite a number of hacks, so just simply jumping to version 3.7 isn't as easy as it may sound. We are looking into it.

I just loaded Firefox 3. Using the advice provided by Drex, this seems to be working fine for me so far. Since I don't have a Mac, I can't replicate that experience.
