Linda,

It looks like you have Javascript disabled in Firefox, or another
extensions that is blocking the American Factfinder in Firefox for you.
  I just checked it in Firefox and it works fine for me. Unchecking the
"Enable Javascript" box in the settings makes it not work, so that's why
I suggest that you check there first.

I also checked Firefox, Opera and Safari on a Mac and it worked on there
as well so there doesn't seem to be any problem with Firefox
universally, but add-ons like NoScript, AdBlock, etc. could disrupt it.

Good luck.

I tried again this afternoon and still could not get in. Then I tried another browser (Chrome) and it worked. It also seems to be working in Internet Explorer. It does not seem to be playing nice with Firefox, however. Thought others might wan to know.
