It's very helpful, thanks!  Just have one more question: although the firestarter
process auto-runs after bootup, can I also make the gui part of firestarter also
auto-run right after bootup?  
I've tried to put sudo /usr/sbin/firestart --start and gksudo /usr/sbin/firestarter
--start into the Gnome menu Preferences->Sessions->Startup Programs, but none of
them worked.  Is there anyway to do this?
