Sudden problem with Google filters in Firefox

[flyingbeetle]

Hi JJoe,

First off all: Many thanks for your friendly efforts!

1. I did indeed attach the source text of the broken page. If I load this source into IE9 for example, everything is displayed well. Only in Firefox, it is messed up.

2. I don't now exactly, when the problem appeared first, but certainly not after I installed version 16. It started in version 15. I thought that it might help to downgrade and downloaded the installer for version 14 from the Firefox FTP site, deinstalled version 15 and installed version 14 instead. The problem remained. During my stay at the Firefox FTP, I noticed that there was already a prerelease of version 16 available and in the vague hope that this would solve my problem, I installed it. But no change. It is all the same in versions 14, 15, and 16. By the way, when I click on any search result on the messed up page, I yield always only error 404 (please see the attached screen shot 404.png).

3. I followed your advice and replaced my User-Agents.ptxt by yours. No change...

4. I opened Proxomitron's log window (at first without the HTML debug option) and this (message log 1.txt) is, what it shows, when the working results page is loading, and this (message log 2.txt) when the broken page is loading. I do not understand too much of it, but I find that entry "RESP 944 : Content-Disposition: Attachment -> Filters off!" curious, that is shown when the messed up page loads. In HTML DEBUG INFO.txt you find, what is displaying in the browser window, when the broken page is loading.

5. One more observation: When I right click on Next on the working (first) search results page, instead of left clicking, chose the option "Copy link target", paste this into the browser's address field and hit Enter, the following page opens in perfectly order. Strange, isn't it?

6. I cannot find any "#" in the address of the messed up page.

7. I did not observe any other problems with proximotron and Firefox, it is only with Google.

If you find out, what is wrong here, you are a real genius. Oh crap, you are a genius anyway!


Thanks a lot and
Best regards
