What The Hell Is Wrong With My Internet!!
 

Argghhh. Try to load yahoo, "looking up y.simg.com" and it just hangs. When the page loads it's nothing but text, about 7 pages long, just text links. Same damn thing happens when I try and load weather.com. It's driving me batty.

Maybe someone's trying Round 2 against CloudFlare?

Ad blocker is your friend. Many of those extra loading sites go away if you put Ad Blocker on your browser.

You lost me at yahoo

Did you try turning it off and turning back on?

Bunch of comedians up in this joint. Anyhoo, I ran rkill and that fixed it, probably have some sort of virus, whatevs.

So I got everything just about fixed except this one thing that's nagging me. That tab bar in the main window wasn't there before. Anyone know how to remove it. Before, whenever I would open a new tab, the tab bar would open under the address bar, and as I said, when it was just the main 1 window, there was no tab bar at all.

I am not familiar with firefox anymore but I am going to guess that you now have a newer browser version of firefox installed or one of your browser settings was changed. Did you happen to look under browser settings and see if there is an option for tabs below address bar?

EDIT Just looked on my older computer and that is exactly how the firefox browser looks on that computer. Were you using a different browser previously?

Nope, always been Firefox, well since Netscape (RIP) went away. I did a reset of Firefox yesterday and got everything back to the way it was except for that one thing.
