And if you can't even decipher the damned hint?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Then you are too clever for your own good.

What's the hint? If I may ask.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I'm regretting upgrading to Firefox 2.0 on my PC, because it randomly just decides not to load pages. Not because the internet is broken, or the router needs to be reset; even after all that is done, it just won't acknowledge the link I'm clicking or URL I've entered or refresh button. It affects IE and Flock, too. Fucking annoying. I have to restart the computer every time. Makes a girl want to switch back to Opera.

The most recent upgrade (2.0.0.1) broke a lot of themes, so if you're using a non-default theme, that may be the source of the problem.

It's in two foreign languages. Which I can translate just fine, but they are just HINTS. And I can't get the exact response anymore (keep in mind, I probably last used it a year ago, and set it 4 or so.)

I'm a damned moron. Can't figure this sucker out, damnit.

Well, I wasn't using a theme, and I did upgrade to 2.0.0.1, and it's unfortunately still happening. But I'm thisclose to wiping the damn thing and starting over with Kubuntu as the primary bootable drive anyway, so I'm just going to grit my teeth and deal with it until I have a new shiny video iPod and time enough to start the whole game over again.

Funny how I never have these problems with my mac.

Are you using any other add-ons? Because once the theme I use was fixed, everything's worked fine.

Yeah, quite a few; but the problem was still happening when I loaded the program in Safe Mode. It wasn't happening in 1.5, and I wish there was an easy way to downgrade, but it seems more trouble than it's worth.

You can reset the password if you boot the machine from the OS X system disk.

All is well that ends in pizza.

ND beat me to the answer I was going to give.
