Ah, yes I had forgotten about that email. The gregarius code uses <link rel="next" .. /> instead of rel="prefetch" which is why I missed it. Firefox will not prefetch anything unless it finds a statement like the one above. If you set network.prefetch-next = false, then it will ignore those prefetching links. Anyway, it looks like this prefetching is done for channels and items, but there is no prefetch for folders and categories. Is this by design?
