As a new user, it is the third time I have installed and uninstalled Ubuntu from my system. That is fine - got used to doing that with Windows because of their inherent security breach. I was using the synaptic package manager to install anything interesting to check it out. The issue came about because I suddenly found firestarter supposedly blocking bittorrent even though I was not downloading anything. There was some package that was supposed to permit anonymous surfing, so I got rid of that and then looked at orphaned packages and found some '/libs'? /of some Tex package I installed AcuTex I think. I marked that for complete removal and then I ended up in that mess. I reformatted the disk and will reinstall and anyway won't experiment for sometime. The thing is that one needs to read the manual apparently there are no shortcuts to that may do that or not. Not even sure whether this helps in anyway. But, one question please can somebody tell me how do I knoe firestarter is working if there is no icon visible! Apologies for what might sound gibberish to you out there - my willing to experiment is but an attempt at acknowledging the good work from all of you. Thanks
