Installed Test Pilot yesterday at end of session. Today, Firefox has started to open empty web pages - from what should be cashed content (as these pages are frequently opened) and instead of fetching "new" data, it simply stops and does nothing ?! This obviously never happened before I installed the test pilot gizmo - or I would have addressed it then - so WHY has it started to do this now ?! Is this a known issue that others have also noted, is it a 'bug', could it be that other installed programs (eg., Anti-Virus et al) see the new addition as malware and are restricting access somehow ? Any answers out there please ?!
