Firefox's newest version doesn't seem to display Acaeum pictures or hyperlinks on the website (i.e., one can't navigate across sub pages). Could someone advise how to get those features to work?

I have the latest version of Firefox.  Everything works fine for me.  It might be an installed add-on that is causing the problem and has nothing to do with Firefox itself.

If you cant figure it out, you can always "google" the problem.  That is usually how I solve computer problems that I dont have an answer for.

Trying clearing the cache.

I just accessed Acaeum with latest Firefox (running on MacBook) and all the images and urls were visible.

It's annoying, though.  If a good cache-clearing doesn't do it, try clearing history and cookies.

Good luck!

Thanks for the tips, but nothing works. Every site displays properly using firefox except this one.

Is this something the administrator can look at? In the various help files I looked at it may be possible that the settings are biased towards IE.

I've never used IE to visit this site.  Firefox works.  I'm using version 9.0.1 on a Mac.

Send a pm to Scott FoulFoot.
He's always been glad to help

P.S. He's in Hawaii, so there are about 700 time zones between us.

I haven't a clue what could be causing the problem, though I'm pretty sure it's not a server issue -- the forum has all sorts of fancy modifications done to  it, but the main site is pretty vanilla HTML.

If pictures are not displaying, that sounds like some sort of ad blocker on your side -- try checking your Firefox extensions and see if you have something suspicious installed.  I've never heard of hyperlinks not displaying / being filtered out.

As a last resort, try uninstalling and re-installing Firefox (you probably won't lose any of your favorites or settings).

Sorry I couldn't be of more help --

I don't think Foul resides in Hawaii any more.

Might wish he was though? :)

I unclicked "block reported attack sites" and I no longer required acaeum.com to warn me about addons. I can navigate the site now.. but still can't see the pictures.
