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). |

> Firefox gives a 'Firefox can't find the file at http://xkcd.com/981/' error. 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. |
| tracyanne Nov 26, 2011 8:10 PM EDT |
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. |
