Running everything as a root user, especially such a complex piece of software as Firefox, is a huge security risk!

I was very positive surprised to see your name Stjepan.<br />It reminded me of great times at FER when I did a Linux seminar in your group. :)<br /><br />Best wishes!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02287871999414794449noreply@blogger.com
