I use newegg all the time. I use firefox all the time. I recently upgraded to firefox .9, and newegg recently upgraded their site.

So, which one is the culprit?

I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem:

Whenever I go to a secure checkout page, the browser locks up. It works in IE (yeeee-uckeee!), but when I go to check out, using Firefox .9, i get a nonresponsive browser and then I have to kill the process.

    I just ordered a cd-burner I needed to get for next week from them using Firefox .9 with no problems, Brian. :confused:

    Maybe you should re=install Firefox and see if that's the problem or something.

    I was going to get the burner later this week anyways. I have a friend wanting me to get it for him and our schedules only overlap 2 days right now so I need it in hand when I get in.

    Clean install (new profile and everything) or did you just install over it?

    I was having the same problems with Firefox/Newegg. I would get the error of:


    Transaction was abort
    When you try to create sales order, some errors happened.
    System Failure: -2147217887 Microsoft Cursor Engine->PrcocessOrder Multiple-step
    operation generated errors. Check each status value.


    when trying to complete the order. I uninstalled Firefox (0.9.3), removed the complete directory and removed all my profiles as well and reinstalled it. After I reinstealled it I reinstalled my favorite extension "Firesomething". I retried placing the order on Newegg and got the same error again. I completely uninstalled (even rebooted for fun!) and reinstalled Firefox 0.9.3 without putting Firesomething or any other extensions on. I was able to place the order.

    Are you running Firesomething as well?

    Anyone running Firesomething able to place an order with Newegg? Maybe the Windows server doesn't like the mods that Firesomething does to the browser. My 2 cents worth.

    I am not running firesomething... I've since reinstalled my computer completely, but I haven't ordered anything from newegg yet. When I do, I'll update this thread.
