Oregon Computer Consultants Association – Why I Am a Member

26th September 2006

The Oregon Comuter Consultants Association (OCCA) is a vast pool of local knowledge.
I sent this out to the group today -

I am not a Firefox whiz, but for the past year, use it almost exclusively. Several months ago, a secure site stopped logging me in. Actually, it appeared to log in fine, but all I saw was a white screen. To this day, if i want to log in to that site, I have to use IE on my current PC.

This weeekend, the same thing happened toÂ Google Adwords and that’s not good. Although I still can log in with FF to every other account here- https://www.google.com/accounts/ManageAccountÂ – for the actiual Google Adwords account, I then have to open in IE or I get a blank window.

This must be fixed to retain my sanity!Â

Within 20 minutes, Steve Shank, from Oregon computer solutions phoned me, and we poked through a few options unsuccessfully, then he remembered a Firefox plugin that lets you open “IE” sites in a Firefox tab with a simple right click.
Thanks Steve!
