I am constantly having problems with the game. Either the case suddenly ends, or after I uncover potential suspects, the map doesn't update so I can't interview them, or after I get an alibi for someone, I don't get the option to check the alibi with the appropriate person. I have cookies enabled, and this happens to me in Firefox and IE.
It's really infuriating as it wastes my cases, and yesterday I couldn't finish a single case because of these damn bugs. Anyone else had this problem, or know how to fix it?
Cheers.

Never had this problem, but I suggest you file a bug report. You can do that in city hall.

I don't really know much about technical computer stuff, but it sounds a bit like the problems I had once, so I'll copy what Ben told me, and you can check if it might do the trick :)
After you've gotten new info on suspects and it doesn't show up, does it help when you hit the refresh button?
If so (and this was what Ben suggested) then:
you can try to set your browser to reload pages on every visit. In IE, the way you do that is:
Tools Menu >> Internet Options >>
Under the "Temporary Internet Files" subheading, click the "Settings..." button >>
Under "Check for newer versions of stored pages", click "Every visit to page" radio button >>
Click "OK"
The drawback to doing that is, if you are on a slow internet connection, you'll notice a delay when loading pages. If you are on a dialup, I would suggest setting iot back to "Automatically" when you are not playing Sleuth
Not sure if this could fix your problem as well, but it's worth having a look at :)

I think I've solved it.
Was a combination of your suggestion plus turning off Google Web Accelerator.
