help please Skinner

I keep getting a notice " the connection was reset while the page was loading". Then I can't access DU again. Is this a glitch with Firefox or is it from the DU end. This happens after I am logged in, and go to read another site or link and try to get back to DU. Hope I explained this problem so you can understand it. tx, not a techie

couple of months, and since Firefox did an automatic update, even more. Only seems to happen when I am on DU, and click on certain links, something does not seem right. I log off, and try getting back on via IE, and get the same message, "try again " does not work. I have to clean my registry, log off and log back on, and sometime this works.

and click on a thread. It started within the last couple of weeks. When I click on the "try again" option in the message it works. I am also on Firefox so am wondering if it's a Firefox issue rather than a DU issue?

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.


The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
