I do not understand the reason for this:  Using Firefox and/or
Internet Explorer,  I do a search in Yahoo for Circuit City.  The search
completes, I
click on the Circuit City official web site (circuitcity.com) and the page
comes up blank, the bottom left corner says "done".
I can manually insert circuitcity.com in the URL bar, and the web site loads
and comes up.  It does this on both browsers.  This doesn't happen just on
this web site, some web sites load from the search and some do not.  Why is
this?

If the problem is also happening on IE, then its not a FF problem.
There's something else blocking your connection.  I really don't know
but a few suggestions would be your internet connection, AV problem,
firewall problem, or even a HOSTS file problem.  Or it could be
something else that you're running in the background.

It must be the way the Circuit City and other webs site are configured.
Going through the same procedures, Best Buy's site loads with no problem,
among others.
It's nothing I can't live with.
