What is the proper way to use wildcards in Abrosia? (I've located exactly one post on this and it didn't solve the problem.)

First, I checked that there were healing potions in the shop. I tried "*Healing Potion" and "* Healing Potion" (separate lists). These result in interminable visits to the shop in question. Nothing gets bought.

I tried "Healing Potion*" and "Healing Potion *" (again separate lists). This results in short visits and no buys.

Help?

Over the last couple of days, I get the following message when on Neopets and clicking various links: "You have chosen to open: xxx.phtml which is a: Plain text from: http://www.neopets.com. What should Firefox do with this file?"

I've been through Firefox's standard support page and googled it. No luck. Anyone know how to stop this?

I know many advanced members are using lists provided to advanced members only. I also know the auto lists in Abrosia are excellent.

For those of us who do not have access to the advanced lists and want to create our own lists, what should we consider when making a list?

I'm watching Abrosia work. (I know, a watched pot...) Every time it visits a shop it says "Visiting [shop name] 33/324" or some other fraction. Does that mean visit 33 of 324 attempts?

You can't see them, so what's the big deal about invisible pets? It seems like it would be a lot less expensive to pretend to have a pet that you couldn't see. Can anyone explain the allure?
