Perhaps this problem appeared after I upgraded the Firefox package to use 
2.0.0.17? I may have used a BeOS net_server build for the previous 2.0.0.12 
based package, and now I've use a BONE build. Other than that, I don't know 
what the difference is. I also sometimes get Firefox first start trouble, 
but other times, it works fine. Obviously, I tested the new package before 
commiting the change that swichtes to it, and I only noticed later, that it 
gives problems "sometimes".

Best regards,
