Re: [orca-list] interesting firefox 4.0 weirdness

[Guy Schlosser <guyster104 att net>]

Thanks for the tip Jose, the ctrl+r did work for me also to gain access 
to my start page.  Funny part is, the bug seems to be hit-or-miss.  When 
I launched ff4 the first time, it just automatically worked, as with 
ff3.6, but then after closing down, and re-launching again, had the same 
problem as posted, but was able to fix with control R.  Thanks again, 
and have an awesome Tuesday.
