  A search query has been submitted to http://search.r-project.org
  The results page should open in your browser shortly

which it duly did. However -- and this is what's interesting --
I entered the command in R running on my machine B, at which
I'm sitting.

This machine B is independently displaying the Firefox browser
running on Machine C (via X Windows; Linux on both machines).

And that's the browser where the search results appeared.

So R running on B can hijack Firefox on C. How does it know?
