In the last 4 months I bought a new monitor to replace the one that
clunked out in me. I am currently using it with an old PS2 type
keyboard and mouse attached to a creaky old desktop that will eventually
be replaced. Likely I will want to replace it with a laptop with wifi

ports at one shot which might be useful as I don't know where I am going
wrong. Or just the one?

Thanks for the solution to my Firefox/Thunderbird woes. All cured now.
The answer was to add prefs to Thunderbird to allow Firefox in as
suggested by Tore Lund. Since these preferences do not exist already
they need to be added manually to a file.
