I have a very similar problem with a friend of mine. She's the only one I
have constant trouble with.
It'll be fine, then it just fails and freezes. I sent a sample to Eric a
month or so ago, and he said it looked like Fire was awaiting a response
from MSN, and never gets it.
If there is a variable I am aware of, that perhaps you might check with your
friend, is if they are behind a proxy or firewall. I was in my friends
office trying to figure out what she's got going there, and found their
office connection is 100% routed through MS Proxy server. I'm not terribly
familiar with it, but all traffic on every open port is routed through that
POS. Needless to say, that's why she's now unable to run Fire or even email
through her brand new shiny 14" iBook. Setting up SOCKS routing doesn't seem
to work.
Anyhow, that was the nature of my last message, on whether anyone has gotten
fire working behind that hunk-of-junk.
Maybe check with the buddy you have issues with and see if they have such a
convoluted proxy/firewall setup. Could be inherent.
I look forward to hearing more about this. I wouldn't pull so much hair out
if I could fix this.
