I just recently purchased a new laptop for my home. I downloaded firefox b/c I prefer this over internet explorer. However firefox is not allowing me access to my "classes" I keep getting an error message of "please wait while the module loads". I searched this on google and the individual posting said to download a new version of firefox clear the cache and your good to go...... Not exactly I repeated this process 3 times, only to discover it is STILL not loading. My computer at work loads my school classes just fine. :-((( Please help me to fix this problem. It's such a head ache.

Sincerely,

Sydney

Hello,

Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.

(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)

  • You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  • Or open the Help menu and click on the Restart with Add-ons Disabled... menu item while Firefox is running.

Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"

If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article for that.

To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.

When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.

Thank you.
