Gary/All,

I just filed the following bug in Mozilla bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=453704

*Please* comment on this bug with as much information as possible so we 
can get this fixed. This is really critical for me, as I'm sure it is 
with a ton of other people in similar scenarios.


Sincerely,
Jordan
