Emily the above telnet test indicates that you are unable to communicate with your local machine on port 9997. I would check your firewall / ipchains settings and make sure that you are not blocking connections from 127.0.0.1 -> 127.0.0.1. I would think that it would be allowed but you never know. You could also try disabling the firewall on your machine and then telnet to port 9997 while firefox is running to make certain if it is the firewall or not. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Watir General" group.
