you know, sometimes I have the same problem. Always going from an individual post back to the main listing. But it only happens sometimes. Hold down the mouse button for a second and your last 10 or so pages will pop up in a list, then you can select the page you want to go back to (that's what I do at least). I'm on a mac, are you on a mac or a PC?

edit: and I only have that problem on this site

I also use firefox but I have never tried to use the back button cause I always use the new tabs. The tabs veiwing is the best thin about Mozilla

I have had it happen on Craigslist.org also. I HATE MOZILLA. It's promoted for people who can't secure their own computer and aren't smart about spyware and viruses. I'm an IE guy for life.

Ahh yes the tabs. I think that is in my top 3 favorite things about firefox. 1 is only 10%(not an exact figure) of people on the internet use firefox. and number 2 is no one is writing viruses for firefox.

I just use MS Internet Explorer (at work) and it does the same garbage once in a while when I hit the back button.

i use firefox and have the same problem too, but if you hit back twice it works. i think its somthing to do with the adverts (being in a iframe ? ) that loads after teh forum.
