FIre Fox Question

I have Fire fox on all my computers now. On one of my laptops, I often have to click on bookmarks twice, since the first time I get a message saying the URL can't be found. Second click always works, but it is annoying as hell.

Anyone have an idea what setting would cause the browser to fail to locate a URL first time through but find it the second time?

It's very consistent this way. I think it might have somethign to do with the cache, since once I do find a site I can go back there first click the next time, although it usually reverts back the following day to not finding it.

Yes. Was there a problem with the older versions?

I've never seen anything like that. Go through the tools/options screens completely and see if you have some strange settings.

I have that exact same problem, limited not only to Firefox, but Netscape aswell.
