Cats and Firefox Support
What do cats and Firefox support (support.mozilla.com) have in common? Apparently, feedback suggests that almost 50% of users arrived to support page by a mistake. Who are those to blame? Cats, of course!
Here are some comments written by people, who’ve accidentally visited support page (as from blog.mozilla.com)
“actually the cat walked on the keyboard”

“I was stretching in my chair, and next thing I know, I’m on the FF help site. OOPS!!”

Heh. I found this page trying to find way how to disable the f1 (help) from firefox. Since my lenovo has “hot air” coming out from the corner where the f1 button is, my kitten likes to be there and is many times a day opening the firefox help tab… this is not so bad, but when i’m not stopping it there may be hundreds of open help tabs, when i come back.
