For some odd reason, every so often, Firefox will load the wrong icons for certain things. For example, at PureZC's forums, Firefox will load the icon for the "" smilie with the one used by the "" smilie. I have to clear my Cache (and sometimes even my COOKIES!) in order to fix that, and it's really beginning to get on my nerves, as when it's messed up like that, I have to quote a post to figure out what the person is REALLY trying to convey... I'm using the latest version, BTW. Is there any way I can fix this PERMANENTLY? The method I use only works temporarily...

(Also, if it makes any difference, I didn't get this problem in IE at all, and when I installed Firefox, I chose to load the stuff from IE so I didn't have to set it up all over again.... You know, with all the websites I go to, the accounts I use... Stuff like that.)

Hmmm.... Why yes, I do...

I have:

-Download Statusbar
-Adblock Plus
-That extention that already comes with Firefox (I just turned it on)

Also, I have two themes besides the original:

-Acid Burn v1.3a2 (which I am currently using, though I want a Mario- or Zelda-themed... theme)
-OldFactory Black v 2.1.0

Which of these could be the problem?

I have the same problem too...however, I don't have any extensions installed...

The only way, I know of how to fix this problem, is to open the bookmark.html file and remove the "BASE64" attribute from the bookmark.

Hmm... I didn't see a "bookmark.html" file at all, but...

Think it could be because I alwaus use at least two tabs, one for this site and one for another place I frequent? I'm beginning to think that when I have two tabs open, it's trying to load from the other tab or something when I switch tabs... It's like just having more than one tab open screws with the icons and stuff... Thoughts on my theory? (If this is true, then maybe it needs to be reported... How would I report it?)

Edit: Nevermind.... The problem's back for the third of fourth time again TODAY.... It's never happened this often before... This is like, the sixth or seventh time it's happened since I got Firefox... Almost makes me want to go back to using the very-lame and soul-stealing IE.... But I don't want to do that...

Or you could try Opera.

Hint hint.


But really, it's probably some obscure bug that nobody knows about. Either google for the bug report page or deal with it yourself.
