Firefox and Opening Games

[SuperMoonMan]

Well, I installed Firefox and unistalled Internet Explorer. After doing so, I attempted to open a game of Phlinx. After nothing happened for about 5 minutes, I tried other games to no avail. Is there some kind of file that I need to download? Any help is greatly appreciated.

You need to download and install Sun Java

Go to the pogo fag they should tell you which one.

[SuperMoonMan]

I did that and I installed it. Still nothing.

[badcrazygirl]

Ummm, popup blocker maybe?

[SuperMoonMan]

The game screen opened up and it stayed on that Starting [Game Name]... screen for a few minutes without doing anything. The popup blocker isn't on, either.

Try the Pogo FAQ under the help botton, see if they don't have the answere.

Read all the things involving Firefox and did everything they said - nothing.

Ok, so after restarting my computer for the second time, the Java program started and the game opened successfully.

[badcrazygirl]

glad you got it to work.

[SuperMoonMan]

Thanks.  ;D

Just for the record, if you use the adblock extension for firefox and have "remove ads" checked, you're going to run into problems on free accounts, as the game will never load without the intermission first.  Interesting problem I encountered...just to share.
