Hello Stefan and Thor!

Thor is the expert when it comes to Firefox, and Thor, you may want to discuss this with Steve Slevinski later, if it involves SignPuddle software issues...

But meanwhile, Stefan, just use other web browsers for now...For example, not only Internet Explorer, but also Google Chrome...have you tried that new web browser?

Google Chrome in German for Windows
http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/de/landing_win.html?hl=de&hl=de

download it for free and try it...

Val ;-)

Contrary to that we cannot even get in first contact with SignPuddle at school. Very disappointing ...
