Why do you think I'm still running a moldy old version of Nutscrape?
I find this a lesser evil than running nscd. When Mozilla stabilizes
and/or gets faster, I'll probably run that.

I concur, of course, with Brad's assessment of nscd being the spawn of
Satan (although in our standard Slowlaris load, we just disable the
hosts cache and still let it cache all the other stuff).
