localhost
After upgrading to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, Firefox began to ask for authentication to a localhost:xxxxx. The dialog does not recognize my username and password. The number after the colon varies. I followed advice in several user forums to edit about:config to include network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris;localhost network.hosts.smtp_server;localhost network.proxy.no_proxies_on;localhost, 127.0.0.1, .lapl.org
After two days, the authentication requests returned.
