I've been told the first thing to do when having site/interwebz problems is to try a different browser. Never crossed my mind to mention it. Every time I see a tech type question, I assume I don't know the answer. 
Glad you straightened it out.
We had a running joke at work for problems, "When in doubt, turn it out." i.e. re-boot. That also works more than I like to admit.
I'd like to use Chrome for various other reasons, maybe have to do a reset with it or something.
