Public bug reported: Binary package hint: firefox
When using Firefox 1.5.0.12 (on Ubunti 6.06.1 LTS) to connect to a ftp server running the Microsoft FTP Service, the year column is misinterpreted in quite an embarassing way. Embarassing, as it looks like firefox had an Y2K-issue of correctly using year strings.
