My / file system is still Ext3, and /dev/null is working properly. I found out however, that the Weatherfox plugin for Firefox had caused Firefox to crash, and therefore every time I started Firefox the Quality Feedback Agent tried to send a message. For some reason that didn't work, and the following entries showed up in access.log after a LONG time: 1094561818.215 1041126 127.0.0.1 TCP_MISS/504 1467 POST http://talkback.mozilla.org/spiral-bin/Collector.dll - DIRECT/207.126.111.208 text/html 1094561860.054 1004601 127.0.0.1 TCP_MISS/504 1467 POST http://talkback.mozilla.org/spiral-bin/Collector.dll - DIRECT/207.126.111.208 text/html 1094561860.054 945630 127.0.0.1 TCP_MISS/504 1467 POST http://talkback.mozilla.org/spiral-bin/Collector.dll - DIRECT/207.126.111.208 text/html Apparently the QFA continued to do this even after closing both its window and Firefox, without any relevant processes showing up with ps..?! Does this sound familiar? After I uninstalled the Weatherfox extension the symptoms disappeared. I'll try to reproduce it though.. Ray
