I have to be honest, this could be a widespread problem and nobody knows it.
....you are browsing on IE for *AN HOUR* on your server??!?!?!?
Why are you browsing on your server AT ALL????????????????????????????? And
you installed FIREFOX on a server?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
1) There is only one reason to browse from a server. To get drivers/updates
(and even that is a debatable reason.) That never takes an hour.
2) There is no reason to install firefox on a server. Every app installed
on a server increases the attack surface. IE is part of the OS so it is
somewhat unavoidable, but I'd never install another browser on a server. I
love me some firefox and chrome, but NOT on a server.
So yes, you are alone, out in the cold, experiencing this problem solo for
practicing very insecure server activities. (tongue in cheek obviously...)
