Problems uploading image files to Photobucket & MyAlbum

I’ve been trying to upload image files to Photobucket.com and MyAlbum.com, but somehow encounter problems both with Firefox as well as Konqueror.

Both sides seem to use java-based applets to take care of file uploading, and the problem seems to lie in some sort of incompatability with Firefox/Konqueror.

When I use Firefox, the upload applet gets stuck somewhere midway. When I use Konqueror, I don’t even get that far since the applet doesn’t want to start.

Has anyone encountered these problems, and is there a way to solve it? I’d hate to have to resort to Windows to upload my pictures to the net …

wild wild guess, but did you disable IPv6 in both the network configuration and Firefox?
