ok, I found a fix to this problem, you have to delete all of your temperary internet files, and it'll work like a charm

I've noticed this too (only when using IE though) that on some sites I can't view source like he said. I'll try the fix you found next time I encounter that.

Did you restart your browser and/or the computer? This used to happen to me every so often when using IE, since switching to Mozilla Firebird it hasn't reoccured.

For this & other handy options like window resizing I'd recommend Firebird and some of the developer toolbar extensions.

I do, that's all I use at home. But at work, I develop on IE some and just saying i've seen the problem he's talking about.
