Ah yes. Any idea why Firefox seems to ignore it? Whenever I try to |
| 13 |
browse to local machines in /etc/hosts, firefox gives me a google search |
| 14 |
page which is a bloody nuisance. If I type a VALID ADDRESS in the |
| 15 |
ADDRESS BAR, that's where I expect to go! Not some damn random search page! |
