Private Browsing Google Trouble
Just tried to open a few Private Browsing sessions to do searches in Google in Firefox. Previously this has worked fine. But currently the connections are taking forever to complete. Explicitly connecting to google.com (instead of typing directly in the search box) has the same problem. Doing one of the same searches in a non-private tab worked fine. To compare, I connected to bing.com in a private tab, and did another of the searches there. Again, it worked fine.

What about DuckDuckGo? They respect your privacy anyway. https://duckduckgo.com/ Cheers, Peter -- Peter Reutemann Dept. of Computer Science University of Waikato, NZ +64 (7) 858-5174 http://www.cms.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/ http://www.data-mining.co.nz/

I know they do. I was just curious why Google stopped working.
