It used to be the case that FF would search in advance for the Google or whichever search engine of choice you have selected (on the top RH search window) by prefetching some relevant pages. Could this have something to do with your case? Other than that my guess is that you have setup Gentoo in some place within FF, or one of its extensions and it loads, or prefetches the page in question. A search through its config might help. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

I had impression that FF does checks of pages in your Bookmarks every once in a while which includes updating icon etc. Could that be it? Snoop on the wire to see what does it fetch (sorry, I don't have head of this thread so I don't know if you've done this already). -- Dmitry Makovey Web Systems Administrator Athabasca University (780) 675-6245 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
