Hello,

I've been an OpenDNS user for almost a year.  I have this problem on all web browsers used (Firefox, IE on Win7), (Firefox, Safari on OSx).  I can navigate down but cannot traverse backwards.

  Weird, I participate in the forums since 2007, and this is the first time I hear about this. Also not sure what this would have to do with OpenDNS. A 3rd party DNS service doesn't have a way to impact any browser functionality. Ensure that you have the cache and history enabled in your browsers. Or scan your systems for malware.

  Hello,

   

  Firefox controls the cache size; current cache limit is 350MBs and I do have history enabled.  I scan regularly for malware with CCleaner, Malware Bytes & MS Security Essentials.  This started happening right after I setup OpenDNS.

  This might have been by coincidence. From the technology I would not have an explanation why a DNS service like OpenDNS would have any impact on the backwards navigation function. Btw, you can also use a keyboard shortcut for this function: ALT + cursur left
  Try this to see if it works.

  Also, you could simply temporarily configure a different DNS service to see if the problem disappears. If not, it is unrelated to OpenDNS.

  Try deleting the OpenDNS settings & reboot your machines... Anything different? I'm with rotblitz, haven't seen this, and I don't understand why it would occur. I've had this happen on Firefox, but eventually it led to an extension issue, or else I had to "reset Firefox". Since you're seeing this on multiple OS/browsers, it points to something common... a router?
