Thanks for the reply. I don't have a middle mouse button. And where would these random links be generated from? An event trigger?
To clarify my previous email: the touchpad emulates a mouse wheel as well as a middle button, and as I said, the default action for the middle button/mouse wheel is "paste". When you paste something into firefox it will try to load it as a URL. So in the examples you gave, you had in your copy buffer the text "eth". You (accidentally) pasted it into firefox, and it tried to load it - and firefox tries to help you by adding www. and .com to something that doesn't work as a direct address. That is why it tried to open www.eth.com Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
