Hello, just wondering if any of the bright sparks on the list could offer some help?

I'm creating an image to be deployed across 32 Macs - basically I'm having a really weird issue with Firefox where it appends "Pr" to the last two letters of any search query at http://www.bbc.co.uk/blast/ (in the "Search Blast" function"). For example, a search for 'Liverpool' would end up as 'LiverpoPr'

It only happens in one user account (unfortunately the account that took the most configuration and has a user-tied Ableton Live licence), and only happens under Firefox. I've tried deleting cookies and history, user prefs files, updating, completely uninstalling and reinstalling FF with no luck.

Weird huh?

Could anyone shed any light on this infuriating issue before I resort to building the account again?

Thank you.

Jim

Appreciate the discounted offer & the explanation, times are hard I

pensioners' finances, no matter.

Ł150? If you are going to post ads for commercial conferences to backstage, how about some free backstage passes?

My thought precisely!  I would love to come & cannot afford it.

Hi Brian and Nico:

Thank you for your interest in the event -- and your feedback.

I appreciate both the value that backstagers would add to this discussion, and also the financial constraints under which many operate.

As you may be aware, BBC Future Media & Technology kindly underwrote and ran the event last year, and we were able to waive any booking fee as a result. I had originally hoped we could at least set aside a block of no cost tickets this year, but unfortunately we couldn't carry this through due to lack of sponsorship (recession, media sector crisis, blah, blah, blah).

That said, I am keen for backstagers to take part in the event and we have created a Ł75 ticket just for people on this list. You can use this at the Booking page:
       http://www.mediafuturesconference.org/2009/Booking.html

or go directly to Eventbrite where the code will be pre-filled:
       http://mfc09.eventbrite.com/?discount=MFCBSTG

I hope this offer is sufficient to enable some list colleagues to attend and look forward to you joining us on Friday.

Best regards

Nico Macdonald
