Inventory list disappears since updating SL viewer. Enter search term and list disappears.

Inventory list disappears since updating SL viewer. Enter search term and list disappears. This happens about half the time and once it does it can take many attempts to just get the inventory list to appear again. Any ideas as to how to remedy this?

There are some known HTTP issues that contribute to the problem you see. It is prevalent in Firestorm 4.4.0.

The quick fix is to travel to a deserted region, Fur Ball or Pooley may work. There open inventory and enter a search item and wait for things to update.

If that fails try the current Firestorm work-around: 

To try to get around it:

• Travel to a deserted region
• Open two inventory windows.
• Drag and item (that is item not folder) from the first opened inventory window to the second opened window.
• Log out. Give it a minute.
• Log into the last location, the deserted region.
• Open your inventory and search for an item.

Few people are seeing this problem. For those that do see it, a majority find this fix works.
