Just noticed in my favourites that the little radio icon that sat beside the Warsug link has been replaced by a blue box with a white F in it. Whats the go with that?

Firefox does that with my icons sometimes - dont know why but thinking I may have inadvertently dragged and dropped a different icon in perhaps? Sounds like the facebook icon

Say again is what usually gets the glares for me. But I just can't say can you repeat that again...It just doesn't work, especially knowing what repeat actually means on the radio.
