Firefox 7.0.1

Greetings all,

I have recently formatted and installed Win7 x64.  I have found that while using Sophos Enpoint Security 9.7 (along with Sohpos firewall), that certain sites on Firefox 7.0.1 cause the entire browser (ie. all open tabs) to "freeze" and not load.  I can open a new tab but it will not let me load any pages - this means that I have to keep restarting the browser.  It seems to be certain sites in particluar that cause this problem - one such example is a link on my ISP homepage.

This problem does not occur on Internet Explorer 8.  I tried uninstalling Sophos and Firefox then ran as per normal. 

Can anyone provide an insight into what might be causing this? 

I did search the Sophos forums but found only other Firefox related problems.

Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

    Ok. More information: I am now also having issues accessing our internal web-based student records system (Genesis, by Edupoint Education Systems). This system is hosted on an internal HP Blade platform, running Windows Server 2003 R2. On the machine that I have loaded Sophos ESC 9.7 on, I cannot load Genesis at all under FireFox (pretty little circle just keeps spinning) and with limited operability under IE 9. I use this system daily, and did not have any issues before installing ESC 9.7. No one else in the district has reported any issues, albeit, they have not been fed the new version of Sophos.

    Cannot afford to put this Sophos version into production environment. We live and die on student information.

    Thank you again.
