FWIW I have the following plugins installed, downloaded from addons.mozilla.org: Adblock Plus 1.1.3 Add-on Compatibility Reporter 0.4.1 BetterPrivacy 1.45 bit.ly preview 1.272 Cookie Monster 0.98.0 Flagfox 3.3.20 ShowIP 0.8.19 I use all the same plugins in Windows 7, and went from the last beta through RC[12] and now 3.6-release without the same instability problems that cropped up after going from RC1 to RC2 in FreeBSD -current. hth, Doug -- Improve the effectiveness of your Internet presence with a domain name makeover! http://SupersetSolutions.com/ Computers are useless.
