Slow Firefox DNS Mac OS X Leopard
I have been experiencing some intermittent and very strange problems with Firefox and Google. These began right after I upgraded to Mac OS X Leopard, and I'm not even sure where to start debugging this. The symptoms are simple enough: Firefox suddenly cannot resolve any Google.com address after OS X awakes from a nap.

| Why you need a true secondary DNS server | 2006 02 | 2010/01/04 anonymous | |||
