Actually, switching to IE worked just fine for me (sorry, I should have mentioned that earlier). Loft_Tester reminded me that I forgot to include the JSSH extension as I was installing everything. It's working just fine now...thanks for the help! -George On Jun 8, 2:25 pm, Chuck van der Linden wrote: > I would also make sure you have all the proper gem's installed and > updated.

I would also make sure you have all the proper gem's installed and updated. This sounds similar to some other issues people have had with some win32 related stuff that Watir needs.. If you search the group for "Win32" you'll find some threads related to that, might want to peruse them and try the fixes identified, maybe that one of them will solve your problem. Also, if you switch the browser to IE, does it work? or do you get the same error? that might be telling as to if this is something specific to FF or not.

try the firewatir unit test to see if their stuff runs. Did you install the jssh for your version of firefox?
