"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I bet you need to create a new profile in firefox and reinstall your extensions.

I have had to do this every 1-2 months with firefox because I'm running dozens of extensions on it. It's my fault, but I backup my firefox weekly so it isn't a problem if I have to reinstall it.

Mozilla has a really set of instructions on how to move stuff over to a new profile:

All is well that ends in pizza.

Bonnie, I found a reference somewhere earlier today that if you get the spinning symbol, let it run overnight or longer, it might be fixing something.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

interesting. I went to add a new profile, and apparently Firefox doesn't have the Profile Manager in its package. I wonder if that could be the problem?

ok, after poking and proding and searching thru the linked database, I think I've fixed it. Thanks for the leg up Le Nubian!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

With the latest software upgrade, does anyone know if there's a way to add a direct "podcasts" icon to my iPod touch home screen?

I'd go to apple.com, but I really don't want to watch a video about it.

I already added the B.org button, which is very shiny except that it only works with the front page (and not the Message Center, which is my normal start page).

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Huh? I'm using your b.org icon, and it points to the Message Center for me.

On mine, when I added the bookmark to my home screen, it was just a screen grab until I switched the URL to point to the front page.

Huh. It has run for hours, but not overnight. Thanks for that Daniel. I'll give that a try too.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
