I had not been using gnash, since it destabilized things too
much, and ff handles the absense of a flash player much better than
moz does. That leaves java, which is pretty necessary... :-) I have
been wondering if the latest JDK were the cause, but ff works fine
at work on a P4 w/6.2 and the same patch level of JDK15.
OO is different, however, but I can't see that being an issue
here.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll start with my laptop, which
has the ports backdated to 17 June, and see what that does, then
work forward.
