Hi Raymond,
My FC1 (I'll try FC2 when I get home from work) Moz 1.7.2 was able to
hit both of the sites above without a problem. Can you run:
strace mozilla http://www.megatokyo.com
in a terminal to see if there is any data that might help troubleshoot?
I don't have Firefox on this particular machine to try it out with that
browser here, but will let you know later from my FC2 box (I've got both
Moz and Firefox on the home machine).
Clint
