I am unable to recreate your issue with different PCs from different Networks. Chrome, Firefox and even IE works fine.
I am sorry, try emptying your cache
Yup, have tried emptying cache, delete history, cookies, etc. Reboot computer. Does not work, not sure why.
So, I tried to test mining solo using minerd. Have no luck, encountering this error
D:\Coins\BossCoin>"D:\CPU Miner\minerd.exe" -a scrypt -o 127.0.0.1:18199 -u bss_solo -p bss123
[2013-12-07 11:36:17] 2 miner threads started, using 'scrypt' algorithm.

[2013-12-07 11:36:24] HTTP request failed: Failed connect to 127.0.0.1:18199; No error
[2013-12-07 11:36:24] json_rpc_call failed, retry after 30 seconds
If anyone could resolve either above, that will be great.
The only method that I tested to be working was to go into the QT console and use the setgenerate command to start mining.
