One way to confirm that a resource has been prefetched by Firefox is to load the page that triggers the prefetching and then take a look at the contents of the browser cache by browsing to
about:cacheand clicking onList Cache Entries.If you clear your cache just before you do that, it will be pretty obvious whether or not these resources were prefetched successfully.
