Hello, I get a strange behaviour as far as isolation is concerned between an uml machine and the host, my uml machine is isolated from any network, if firefox is already running in the host, running firefox in the uml machine creates an instance of firefox that is not isolated: the browser can browse the net. if firefox is not already running in the host, then the firefox in the uml reacts normaly, that is, it cannot get to the network. What can be the cause of this or did I dream it? Regards Vincent Perrier |

Firefox has this odd behavior that if you run it, and it sees there is already a firefox instance running on that dispay *even if it is running on a different system*, it will send a message to the existing firefox asking it to open up a new window.
