Firefox 47.0 hangs when accessing cnn.com

[Bob Willcox]

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for your reply.  I've tried about all of the combinations of arguments
to portdowngrade that I can think of without success. Worse, what it spews out
isn't helping me to figure out what I'm doing wrong. Here is an example of one
of the things I tried and its response:

root at luke:3 /usr/ports> portdowngrade firefox 46.0.1
firefox-47.0,1  -> www/firefox
firefox-esr-45.2.0,1    -> www/firefox-esr
firefox-esr-i18n-45.2.0 -> www/firefox-esr-i18n
firefox-i18n-47.0       -> www/firefox-i18n
linux-firefox-45.2.0,2  -> www/linux-firefox
xpi-firefox-showcase-0.9.5.6    -> www/xpi-firefox-showcase

Choose a port origin (directory) from the list
above, and then run portdowngrade category/port

Can you (or someone) enlighten me on what it is trying to tell me??

Thanks,
Bob
