Hi Again Yuandan Zhang! One more thing. You mention "about:config" which I believe means that you edited the line concerning "IPv6-dns disable" in your Firefox browser. That is fine for Firefox but other things may wish to resolve names using IPv6 name service so you should probably see my previous post which I believe is a better answer. Good Hunting! Tod
