Surfing Wincustimize with Firefox causes iTunes radio stream to skip

IE7 doesn't cause skip

Wednesday, December 5, 2007 by fontinalis | Discussion: Personal Computing

Hi all,
I'm having a strange problem when surfing the WC site, galleries or forums with Firefox 2.0.0.11. When I click on links and new pages load my iTunes streaming radio will skip, just like an old record player being bumped. I cannot reproduce this in IE7 on this site. Also, I cannot reproduce the skip on other sites, only when surfing WC in Firefox. I have tried changing WC personal settings to load 12, 24, and 32 skins per page and it still happens.
The weird thing is it happens when I'm surfing the forum. Every link I click will cause my streaming radio to skip regardless of the station I'm listening too. RadioParadise.com at 196k is really sweet! Like I said, I can fire up IE7 and login to WC, forums, and click all over the place without my music skipping.

System: XPSP2, Firefox 2.0.0.11 , IE7, iTunes 7.5.0.20, Comcast cable internet, wireless connection 56Mbps, WB6

Any ideas other than uninstall and reinstall ff?

Thanks,
f
