Install an addon like User Agent Switcher or something like that so you can change your user agent string to say firefox. Or go to mozilla.debian.net for more updated iceweasel packages. You could also run the FF binary from Mozilla right out of your home directory without affecting your system install. Lenny is old stable so you'll stop getting security updates in less than a year. You may want to plan an upgrade to squeeze in the near future. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
