Hello JaDa, Thanks for the reply. I did try your suggestion, but it didn't work. The problem is not Firefox or Opera (note that BOTH are affected, and I did uninstall and reinstall Opera as well, along with deleting all the detrius before reinstalling). It has something to do with the Shared Memory extension under X. I forgot to mention that I have an Intel 965 motherboard with integrated graphics. I think the problem might be specific to this chip set, but if anyone has a solution, I would appreciate hearing from them! Thank you, Scott
