The link seems correct, but it doesn't work-- try this one: http://forums.xkcd.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=76759#p2821247
Works fine here...

That said the forum thread is pretty amusing.
Interesting....Firefox gives a 'Firefox can't find the file at http://xkcd.com/981/' error. Chromium has no problems. Thanks a lot Firefox. Another whine about Firefox is it gags on script-heavy sites that Chromium renders without drama.
I'm using Firefox on here (7.0.1 currently) ... lol. I have noticed that firefox on this laptop has had issues (for a while now) on certain sites (maybe script heavy..maybe not), even with blocking all of the flash and probably a fair bit of scripting on them. hmm.
FF 2.0.0.20 (Noscript, AdBlockPlus) went straight to the relevant strip on this Mepis 6.5 / 1G Celeron box. Dunno what to tellya.
FireFox 8.0 (NoScript, AdblockPlus), no trouble going to site via story link
The link is working fine for me on FF3.6, and I'm not bothering with NoScript or AdBlock.

Have you tried CTRL-F5 or CTRL-SHFT-R ?

If I recall correctly, in FF either of those forces the page to be actually re-downloaded (ie. flushes existing version from the cache).

Well, yeah. If you remove the ' at the end, it works fine though. At least with Firefox 3.6.22.
Bum link . . . porn folder . . . is anyone else (especially on the other side of the Atlantic) snickering to himself/herself here?
Yeh bum link, looks like someone cocked up there, well someone had to go there.
Now some one this side of the Pacific thought the cock up was funny.
Yes, Larry, butt I figured I'd let someone else point out the elephant in the room.
Today it works in Firefox. Mysterious are the ways of the computer fairies. I am ignoring the cheeky bum puns.
