Page refreshing by itself :mad:

    Using Firefox 3.0.5. Windows XP 64bit.

    Find on a number of occasion recently, that the page I'm writing a response on refreshes by itself. It's getting really bloody annoying. Happens when there are Google ads on the top left. Doesn't happen with any other ads.

    When it refreshes, the box I was typing in is either totally blank, or has the quote which I quoted in it.

    Anyone else effected by this. Bloody annoying when I've just written a long response. Oh, and as it's a page refresh, there's no "back" option :mad:

    the FF adblock add-on might help.

    I get that anytime I try to enter the ALT+NUM14 Smbol for music, except that hits Back instead of Refresh. very annoying, didnt always do it, and I do have adblock.

    Wow. A useful feature for subscribers! Didn't know they existed. Cheers.

    Apparently they do exist - though I've only ever seen one in real life. ;)
