Jon -

I'm not sure how much clarifying has been done. Mickey is really vague about the details of how all this stuff works, and I have negligible experience with other browsers.

The real problem with problems like Becca's is that it often takes a lot of digging about, even once the problem is identified if it's something new; and the answers I have "on tap" are only the ones for the problems I've had, or sometimes where we've found some clues here previously. Without hands-on at a strange machine it's a guessing game at best, trying to sort out what's really happening.

(During my early training, the Dean of the EE Dept made a guest appearance in my Jr yr "computing" class (a Signal Analysis thing) and "proved" that vacuum tubes were better switches for computers than those new-fangled transisters. It's been hard keeping up since.)
