Techie Help......

Crazy.

I can not go to www.walmart.com without locking up my computer. I've done it before, even have an account there, have ordered from there. Now, all of a sudden, anytime I go to that site, it begins to load, and then just hangs up. I've even left it overnight to see if it's just a matter of so much graphics that it takes a long time to load.........no dice.

I've tried it with IE, Firefox, and Chrome. Same thing.

NO other site does this.

?????????????????????????

Dump your cookies and try it. I have no idea if it'll fix it but I just wanted to write 'dump your cookies'.

use IE, hit F12 and clear all your cache. Try again. That's how you dump your cookies the right way :)

Or.......bust out the Sea Foam!

Firefox is default. Hate IE. Not sure what this phone uses. But works fine on phone.

Safari if it's an iPhone.

Bite me!

Didn't work. Caused major issues.

Cleared Firefox cache and cookies. Firefox then would not restart. No matter what!

Went to IE11 and walmart.com loaded. But when I try to just give up and make IE11 my default, and import bookmarks/favorites from Firefox into IE11, it won't list Firefox as an option. Only Chrome, which I rarely use.

Walmart.com will now work on IE11..........but, it still locks up my entire browser if I try to open it with Firefox.

I HATE IE11, but......... don't know what to do other than either A) use Firefox without it being default browser (not good), or B) Try to rebuild every single 10,000 of my favorites in IE11, which sucks.

All this because something in Walmart.com is hosing up Firefox.

Might be something else on net Bucky!!
Our whole medical facilities, including the hospitals computers, are all down.
Doctors can't see patients. Can't get their medical records.
Hope it hasn't been hacked. :(

[Buckrub]

No. This issue has been going on for weeks. Only one site, using only one browser. Probably not going to get a remote answer online..........

I don't have a clue about these sorts of things, but if it helps any, the link you posted above loads instantaneously on my iPhone as well as my computer (Chrome).

[Buckrub]

Yeah, I'm convinced it's some setting on my computer, or on MY Firefox. I just can't find it.

Only wild thought I have is Shockwave........walmart.com uses it. But.........well, I dunno. It's frustrating!

[BarryBobPosthole]

When you go to the walmart site om Firefox, can you tell if there's any change to the url before it blows up? I'm wondering if malware has somehow infected your browser or something got corrupted. Butthat's be a cookie issue amd you tried that. Strange. I think I might make sure i had the latest version of firefox too.

BKB

[Buckrub]

Have latest version...36.0.

It loads, mostly........but in about 3 seconds it sits and spins and nothing can be done in that browser again, period. I can bring up Email, or Excel, but any clicking in that browser does nothing. If I start Task Manager (the only way to kill it), it says Firefox is 'not responding'.

[Thumper]

OH!!!! Why didn't you say so in the first place and save a lot of time? NOW I know what's wrong!

Firefox is not responding! Sheeeesh, I should'a known.

You're welcome. ;)
