Chris,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I have tried what you suggested without the
addition of starting it offline.  Good idea.... will try that the next
time.

I created a bug report :

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=570294

and have received a response from Akhil Laddha that version 2.24.4 may
solve the problem.
 
I am running 2.24.3.  I'll be looking for 2.24.4 to hit the
repositories.

Greg
