Max, i think you mean "L"osing of address in your summary? Changing accordingly.

I think this is another manifistation of bug 256050?

This has been fixed after 0.9, duping

Also, you seem to have installed 0.9 on top of 0.8, it is strongly recommend to
uninstall old copies of Firefox before installing new ones:
