The downside.

As much as I'm liking Firefox, there are two quirks that are seriously annoying me (and I'd appreciate anyone who knows of a setting/extension that will fix them).

First, when I hit Back, it goes to the top of the previous page. This is particularly annoying on sites like the RPGamer Board or my LJ Friends Page, where I like to read threads/responses starting at the bottom and work my way up. Both IE and Netscape would remember where, exactly, on the last page I was, but Firefox apparently doesn't, meaning I have to scroll down again.

Second, this is only on one site, but it will give me an alert whenever I visit particular pages. This alert lets me know that it's loading a style sheet. I have to click "okay" to make the alert disappear or view the page. This alert pops up twice for every page. Gets very annoying after a while. (Other Firefox users can see if they're getting the same result by visiting this site and clicking on any of the comics on "www2.uclick.com".)

    I'm finding this five YEARS after you posted it, which 1) proves your point; & 2) gives me an ouchie.

    "Heart of Gold" provides another, absurdly obvious example of this. Inara catches Mal leaving another woman's bed, and acts as if nothing is wrong. Her work "keeps her from being a prude" about sex,…

    I have finished my first run (with Dara) so here's what I've got. (I'll try to be vague for the readers who haven't played yet.)

    Dara: The escape from Virmire. For the first time she had to make a…

    Nah, if she's one of the stupid alignments, she's Stupid Good.

    Once you've finished playing though the game at least once and will know, what's the hardest decision each character had (will have) to make? How would making that decision and seeing the results of…
