Browser problem or site problem?

Hey,

I don't know how many other people are experiencing the same problem as me, I didn't see a topic regarding it so it's got me thinking something is up with my Firefox (3.0.4). The problem is that every single time I open a browser window and click on my RealGM bookmark I get a 'Bad Request' window, even though I know for certain the bookmarked link is correct. I have to then delete all my cache, cookies, saved passwords et al (Ctrl+Shift+Del in the Firefox window) and start all over again. The problem with that being I lose any other passwords I had. I deleted the RealGM bookmark from my browser (and consequently all RealGM page info from my Cache) yet the problem persists. This happens even as I try to access pages that don't require passwords (i.e the team boards versus GOT or Media Lounge)

I don't know how it can be a site problem given that I'm still accessing the site by first going to RealGM.com and then accessing the forums through there. Bookmarks do nothing special to a link but shorcut to it. If the shortcut path is correct then I should be able to access that part of the site without a hitch. Given that the shortcut path is correct but I can't access the forums through the bookmark, is there something in the site preventing me from doing so?

Any help in this matter would be appreciated. Thanks.

I just realized that I have to delete only my cookies to access the page again. Does anyone know why that is? Is there anything I can do to solve this problem? I don't want to switch to Internet Explorer as I have adblock set up on Firefox as well as the RealGM script that was created when the new forum style was introduced. Perhaps the script is the problem? How would one go about removing it?
