https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/media-hint/ The page says that the Mozilla team have reviewed this plug-in as "experimental" or "preliminary": "Experimental add-ons have been checked by our editors to make sure they don't have security problems, but they may still have bugs or not work properly. Use caution when installing experimental add-ons and uninstall the add-on immediately if you notice problems." > This add-on slows down Firefox loading of websites. At a guess, this add-on configures Firefox to use a proxy in another country, i.e. in the UK for BBC media, which will indeed slow down your loading of websites. You can check this by looking at the proxy section of the Firefox configuration preferences. cheers rickw -- ------------------------------------ Rick Welykochy || Vitendo Consulting On social media, it is easy to mistake popularity for credibility. -- Kevin Ashton _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
