When clicking on cnn.com link, or any of the other links to their site, for iGoogle in Firefox, I get a 400 Bad Request error. This only happens with cnn.com, and only in Firefox. It also will happen in Firefox if I attempt to navigate directly to www.cnn.com.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
