FireFox loading images one at a time

[Thunderfall]

Don't know why but FireFox is really strange today. It loads the forum icons one by one, even if it's the same icon (ex. new post indicator or no new post indicator). It's as if the browser requests the image from the server 100 times if there are 100 of the same icon on the page.

I installed several windows updates today... not sure if it has something to do with it. Maybe Microsoft included some bad codes in those windows updates to sabotage FireFox?

I would have to reinstall FireFox if it keeps doing that...

Maybe something is wrong with the profile itself? Have you tried creating a new FireFox profile (without un-installing)?

I noticed that firefox sometimes doesn't load images at all (especially ones hosted on FTP sites )

I dunno about FireFox, but in IE that's a clear sign that your cache is full.

I figured out the problem. It's because I had the "Disabled Cache" option from the Web Developer's Toolbar selected.

Not Microsoft's fault...

Well at least its not a problem with the site loading each image seperately for everyone. That would have jacked up the server costs a fair bit.

but I have to say, that the Web Developer's Toolbar is one of the coolest extensions ever, I couldn't live without it anymore. especially the outline feature

Hmm, I never had this problem with my Firefox .
