I am quickly running into a brick wall..  I did create this file and
it didn't help..

I posted my config file yesterday......  Which I cleaned up and
doesn't even have the old web site that still comes up..

I cleaned my history on my browser....

I may just try a different browser and see what that does...  In case
firefox has this stored somewhere that history doesn't get?

Thanks

Marvin
