Is your house built over an ancient burial ground? I'm thinking
poltergeists might be at fault here. When you first reported this, I
checked all 5 main browsers on both XP and Win7 with no problems. The
web pvr has only had trivial changes in the 2.5 years since it was
abandoned by the original developer, so it wouldn't have suddenly
stopped working with any browser. We would have had reports if there
was a general problem. Perhaps you installed some utility that is
interfering, or maybe one of your add-ons did something evil? I guess
you could try actually removing all the add-ons, but there is no
guarantee that would undo any damage.
