Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Why is Firefox suddenly preventing b.org from automatically reloading, and giving me a pop-up message telling me so every time I try to refresh it myself? I haven't changed any settings.

Oh never mind. I did change a setting, not realizing the effect it would have. All better now.

finally convinced it to run everything as an admin, so we've reached a truce of sorts.

Ginger, please tell me how you did this because it is a huge peeve of mine.

also, can anyone tell me how i can get the refresh button back on the stupid new Firefox?

In FF4, refresh is on the url box, on the far right, that little curvy arrow.

If you want it back to in front of the address bar, you can customize (right-click on some empty space of that tool bar, like at the very right part of it and select customize). When you customize, the refresh button will appear separated from the url box and you can move it in front. It'll become a normal button then.

yeah, i know it's there, flea, but i want my button back.

I did that with a few other buttons, Gud, but Refresh isn't listed.

Oh, sorry, tiggy. It took me about 2 weeks to notice it there!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Good god, the Google Voice charges for calling Jamaica are dramatically lower than my other options. Verizon charges me $.38/minute, at the very lowest. Although it looks like $.76 on my bill. T Mobile charges me discounted .34 and .48 (mobile). Google is .09 and .22. Sheeit. I'm totally doing that from now on.

Maybe it's a Firefox 5 thing. On my FF 5, when you customize the bar, the refresh button splits off the URL box and you can move it. It doesn't appear in the dialog box with the various buttons, though, you have to move it on the bar to get it to it's old place.
