Thanks, Michael.  What you saying is correct I'm sure.  I've been  
using my laptop rather than the server and no longer have problems.   
I'm going to try debuging it.  It'll be a good exercise because  
ultimately firefox on freebsd has been causing a fair amount of  
problems not just this.

Thanks again,
