I give up. I think I'm just going to pay for Parallels. So far: I've tried Chrome, Safari and Firefox on OSX; I've dialled down the security controls on all of my browsers; I've turned off my AV (in the event it was doing something funky); and I've spun up a Linux instance in a Parallels trial (oh the irony), using Firefox, to no avail. Each time, with the same unhelpful 'something has gone wrong' message. Sorry VMWare, I'm not going to lie: this has been a terrible experience!
