Internet problem with loading multiple links/sites

[Jonny101892]

Having a problem loading certain things on multiple webpages such as Netflix, game forums, etc. Here is a link to a game forum (I know you won't know what it is) but it doesn't load at all. It shows a black screen. http/www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgYB_5MeGtIZ1tEqW7VIbXtVSyaVjDZQQqIuDkinNF3ycNXAUXBS8-qdqmKs1p0RllbqBX2do_yrcLvZEy9vf8YnqVptJDynXElRwcWIQvIdkBtwVpoT29RtbFM1m7UZivsJ9toajy2DlwbEogX5FfA6WAR-hxnnVNUAJP274_66fXXTfu967g4j9u_wWkhW-vzFZ6CHdkp93Q06s1uv0O73o2J5FfYABk4qKaW2QWqT1e3AD9JNvqduaYTZZU1HfqvFJd8b-qQZGbQ= A more mainstream relation to my problem would be Netflix. Going onto my Netflix I can see the movies and TV shows I want to pick, but when I click on it it doesn't load. It's just a black screen. I can see the firefox bar on top and my taskbar on the bottom, but the part where the movie should be isn't there. I've updated Java, Flashplayer, and Silverlight. I'm guessing it's a program that isn't working correctly...but I can't figure it out. 🙁 Any help would be awesome.

Try using the Google Chrome web browser. It very often doesn't suffer plug-in related problems like Firefox does, and I'm guessing that's what it's related to: https/www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/

Actually tried that as well as IE. None of the browser's will work. 🙁

The OP's link worked just fine in Firefox here (Linux). My guess is either plugins or video driver.

What kind of plug-ins do you think would cause the problem? My video card is upgraded as recent as it can get as well. Very frustrating..

Latest driver isn't always the best. There's no valid reason to update drivers unless the update fixes a problem specific to your situation. As for plugins I'd start with Flash.
