New router, hopefully new life
Yesterday changed my "old" 601 for a new WBR-2310.
The old one was working really funky lately, browsing the web was a crap (specially heavy pages like Last.fm or Facebook), but, ITOH Voice IP traffic (as well as Skype) was flawless.

Firefox 9 on Lucid Lynx & Adblock Plus trouble
Last night installed a bunch of updates on Sojourner, and, alas at last got my hands on the "Firefox version that has the tabs like the Chromium browser"... Not that I was desperate to use it, will see how it goes...
What you know... Ubuntu's updates pushed Lucid's Firefox to version 9.0.1.
So far, it seems like there is only one problem after the update, Adblock Plus (1.1.3) wasn't compatible and the auto updater seems to fail to fetch a newer version that works with the Firefox version; here is what I did to get Adblock Plus up & running once again...
Fire up firefox and Adblock Plus won't be doing its magic at all..
So goto Menu > Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
And click on Restart now
After that Firefox will, well... Restart, once it does, click on Ok on the window, and Adblock Plus will start working A Ok once again.
