Re: Firefox 31: problems with yahoo and gmail

["John D. Baker" <jdbaker%mylinuxisp.com@localhost>]

I'm using firefox-30.0nb1 (pkgsrc-2014Q2) and although I don't use gmail,
I have been having persistent problems with Google-hosted website assets.

They seem to have started around 1 July 2014.  Attempting to use Google
for basic search (either direct or embedded in other sites, like
NetBSD.org) results in connection reset after a long time attempting to
load.

Web sites which host some of their assets on Google servers also require
one or more page-reload attempts before they appear (i.e. broken image
links).

For basic search, I've started using DuckDuckGo on general principles.
For websites that have tied themselves to the Google, I'll have to see if
the user-agent hack makes them work properly.
