Disabling adons has the same behavior as not disabling them. I can change the home page to Google and when firefox restarts it is still Google. However if I shut the machine down Bing is back. There is no Bing in by about:config display. I agree there must be a configuration of some sort lying around that wants my home page to be bing. I will try what is described in you link above but it might have to wait a few days. Again thanks for staying with me on solving this problem. -- ======================================================================= There is never time to do it right, but always time to do it over. ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akons...@sbcglobal.net -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
