Someone suggested it, and I was a sucker. :)  Both have now been excised, 
no effect that I can hear.  But iceweasal is frozen again, the *&%$ back 
button does NOT work on cbsnews.com.  Everyone but bbcnews is playing 
with your controls, and cbs seems to be the worst offender. When it 
refuses to go back, sometimes closing the tab works, occasionally the 
close button on the browser works, but I keep a root exec'd copy of htop 
running just so I can have the last word.  And I have to use it about 
25% of the time to exit iceweasal.  But that problem is a separate 
thread Request Entity too Large.  No clue it its related, but get 
firefox will get a visit soon if I can't get this under control.
