I made some changes a few weeks ago to get my (now) Ubuntu 8.04.1 (/etc/issue) going with a WPA access point. (That was a horrid struggle.) I've been through some automatic updates since then including one this morning after which Firefox seemed to stick with Work Offline checked (even in a brand new user account).

Things are pretty hosed.

I've found a work-around in Firefox so that I don't have to explicitly turn off Work Offline (set toolkit.networkmanager.disable to true), and I can do that manually in Liferea. But Pidgin has no obvious setting.

If anyone needs further detail, do ask.
