That can be a pain...

I think I've gotten it working... or at least, figured out what the f'ing problem is.

It's Firefox or one of its extensions having some kind of conflict with certain sites. They seem to be Ajax and Flash sites.

So now I'm downloading the latest Firefox and Thunderbird releases. Yay, Mozilla!

And now, GlaDOS (my system) and SHODAN (metacode's system) are both up and operational. Huzzah

Yay! This is the first time I've been able to see that I'll be able to use SHODAN for a prolonged period without having to dig for my desk.
