Unable to view the main forum page, along with other sub-forums

So this just started happening for me. Firefox on a mac. I get this message when trying to load up the main forum list: “The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.” Individual forums seem to work ok, for the most part.

Confirmed with multiple versions of FF on the PC side as well… seems to work in IE and Chrome.

Seems to work in FF 7.0.x but is showing that same message in 3.6.24

Time to upgradeto firefox 7 then!

IBM won’t let me, 3.6.24 is corporate standard

But for serious… this is a bug (probably in Firefox). Roll back any recent changes to web server compression settings?

Only thing we did was upgrade the forum software.

Any way that we (users) or you can submit a defect report to the creators of the forum software so we could see this fixed in a future update?

yeah you can post it on xenforo.com in their forums.

Looks like this might be fixed.

Same problem happening again but on threads instead of the main forum now.
