[TriLUG] annoying OS X issue

[Greg Brown]

I think this is related to the darwin BSDish bits under the covers so 
here it does.  When I am doing research on the web I will come across 
links that I have never visited before.  The first time I click on one 
of these links using Firefox (as well as Safari, etc) the website will 
not come up and I get the following error: <website name> could not be 
found, please check the name and try again.  I can then immediatly 
click on the same link and it will go right through.

At first I thought this was a DNS issue so I set up my edge box (my 
monowall) to be my DNS proxy of sorts (I query monowall and mono 
queries the world and reports back to me).

Anyway the problem persists after I have made the DNS change.  Any 
ideas regarding why this is happening?  Is anyone else suffering in 
this way?  :)  My wife's laptop does the same thing as mine so I don't 
think this is a "just me" thing.  For the record I am running the 
latest OS X with the standard 7.6.0 Darwin Kernel Version.

Any ideas?
Greg
