Fixed it! Many thanks! Maybe I should nuke my anonymous profile from orbit now and again anyway. This looks like it fixed the other issue I was having too (behaving as if the wrong content type was sent)... tho that looks like just bad socks errors... the port number was being left off one of the redirects (oops) and it looks like firefox wasn't giving the proper error. Now that it talks to polio again, I got the error properly.

This didn't fix my issue (as you can see) but has exorcised a demon from firefox which I have cursed since the day it first screwed up a url on me. Thats getting changed in every single one of my profiles! -Steve *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@torproject.org with unsubscribe or-talk in the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
