OT How does Firefox start (plugin-container.exe)?

Try typing "about:config" in the URL bar. A list of preferences
will eventually be shown. (Note: Be careful in there. There is
no "apply" button, no "revert" capability. Make a backup of the
appropriate files, before doing something you'll regret. I
learned this the hard way, be deleting an entry in there, and
then having no template to put it back with.) This is like a
registry, but private to Firefox, and operated from the browser itself.


Cool. My latest Firefox gives you a warning that you can void the
application warranty by messing up the values. How do you change the
values? Out of curiosity, not that I intend to do it.

My recommendation, is to not delete any entries. If you want
to delete an entry, take a screenshot of the entry in place, so you
can refer to the picture later.

It's either that, or use a backup strategy instead.

Apparently ForceBindIP keeps itself in the program/process.

Upon further testing, it does a good job of that, forcing Firefox to
use the specified connection.
