When I'm opening the web browser it keeps telling "Updating" and doesn't allow to open anything. Any suggestions?

- Launch "X Terminal" and enter "killall browserd" (without the quotes).
- Reboot your tablet.
- Uninstall any browser extensions (Adblock Plus, Flashblock, Greasemonkey, Spellcheck) you've installed.
- Launch "X Terminal" and enter "rm -rf .mozilla" (without the quotes). Warning: This will clear all your browser settings, cookies, saved passwords, etc.

Hi there,
great and thanks a lot, I am having the exactly same problem. Rebooting or waiting does not help at all. I will try the other hints later this day and report.
UPDATE:
Unfortunately didn't help (none of the above). Anything else we can check, logs... ?
Thanks,
Corwin

I had the same problem.
I did the following and it woked again:
as root-->
apt-get remove --purge osso-browser microb-engine microb-eal
apt-get install osso-browser microb-engine microb-eal
it solved :-)
