The new TechNet 2.0 site doesn't seem to like FF 3.6.
It seems to work fine in IE8. Anyone else have this problem? Or is it just me. :shock:

Me thinks that MS expects Technet subscribers to most likely be using their own web browser.

just tested the site again this time in firefox safe mode and got the lockup again. i know it is not a virus, because earlier i updated my security software and ran full scans with both. i have noticed issues since going from 3.5 to 3.6. her is one page.

Firefox 3.6 hangs / freezes shortly after start

Logged in and am downloading Windows 7 Ultimate x86 ISO.
My account expired last week but I can still download stuff. weird.

EDIT: I just checked and I am using 3.5.8, and not 3.6. Guess I will wait to upgrade Firefox.

Ok- I disabled a Silverlight plug in and everything works but the how to videos. want me to install silverlight but then refuses and says I already have it installed. Reinstalled silverlight and no change. I'll just use IE if I need the videos for now.
