That's what I've been doing, but it's a real pain to have to quit and 
restart mozilla every time I disconnect/reconnect to frii.

It also doesn't make sense to me, since presumably the addresses don't 
change (or not frequently, at least); why can't mozilla reconnect to the 
same website once I've reconnected to my ISP? And why does it fail to 
resolve new addresses? I haven't confirmed this except by watching the 
lights on my modem, but I think it's not even trying to resolve against 
my ISP's DNS servers.
