Youtube = Flash, which is always a bad time. Plus, sound with Flash takes a bit of extra setup perhaps. Try the following: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-f375cba46014e861cd5ec7643bd7c4ef05acff2b > Then, trying the next thing I could think of, as root, got me things way > beyond my comprehension : > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# ps ax | grep epiphany > 12248 ?

Anything to do to privoxy or Fedora itself?? I think it looks like epiphany is still running, though you Force Quit it. I'd say kill it. 'killall epiphany' should do the trick, or you could end the process in the GNOME System Monitor. Either way, you should be able to get Epiphany to start after that by just telling it not to recover tabs.
