I am unable to attach a file to an email. It's not that I get any response at all, it just sits there. I don't have a "Not Responding" message at the top of the screen or an error message. I get nothing. I've tried some of the solutions suggested on the net but nothing works other than using a different browser which I would prefer not to do.
