I don't think you and I are interpreting "2" in the same manner.
Curt has counted the number of general successes from people (other
than me), ie Lisi and Cindy-Sue. Hence his surprise at Cindy-Sue's
phrase "this many others of us".

AFAICT from the postings, there was only 1 report of success with
iceweasel, that from Lisi. (It increased to 2 only when Ric posted.)
Encouraged by these reports, I shall revisit the problem with
iceweasel. I had been afraid that I would have been wasting my time.

I shall now tinker with subsidary [sic] parameters in iceweasel to
see if I can get the username/password boxes to appear. I don't yet
feel comfortable with the look and feel of chromium (rather like
the new google maps).

Cheers,
David.
