This only happens to me sometimes when I am using Firefox. It is random, most of the time it's fine. So yeah, what is it? When it happens, it annoys me like crazy!

No, but it does only happen in Firefox, not IE7. The only extension I have for Firefox (which I added recently) is this.

Apparently, the Geeks to Go! interface doesn't like me to go from page 1 to page 2... if I jump straight to 3 (if it exists) then I'm okay.
Yes, that's exactly as I remember the problem, but it hasn't happened to me in a few days.

I'll let you know if it happens again - no more replies and we're all happy

It has happened to me since my last post also
I'm not too fussed if the problem is on my end or your end, as long as we can find it and fix it! There's probably some simple preference adjustment to be made within Firefox...
