Hi Jan,

Thanks for your response. I started up firefox from an xterm window so that I
could see/capture the console output and here's what I get:

bob@luke:10 /.amd_mnt/vader/host/stor/home/bob> firefox

***** at this point firefox put up the unresponsive script dialog box *****


As it turns out, my user ID is 5555 so the npviewer.bin warning lines appear
to be due to something related to my ID.

I'm going to try the other things you suggested next and see where that takes
me.

Thanks,
Bob
