Check the version, if it's not 4.10.8 just reinstall through clicking this link: http://userscripts.org/scripts/source/52341.user.js

Make sure your Greasemonkey and Firefox are fully up to date as well.

I currently have Greasemonkey 0.8.20100408.6 and Firefox 3.6.3, and Bob 4.10.8 is working fine on my Windows XP Pro desktop and my Windows Vista laptop.

i had the same problem... it probably is a firefox and greesechimp not being updated. but for some reason my firewall was getting in the way too, which is wierd I have 100% (or thought i did) control of my firewall.

ender is right most likely, make sure all your stuff is updated or just go the route I did... it worked for me

I just re-downloaded greasemonkey and it won`t succeed just the same as last spring. This version is 4.10.5
When I click the link to 4.10.8 I got Java script problem message. The link doesn`t work either. Any advice?

Looks like the site hosting the script is still down, wait until userscripts.org is back online.
