P.S. Using Thunderbird version 2.0.0.14 (20080421), with newest version of Lightning just downloaded from http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/lightning/

This belongs in Calendar, but I'm not sure if this is a Lightning-only problem or an ICS parser problem.

I'm guessing the latter; calendar folks are welcome to triage as they see fit. If incorrect, please move.

I can reproduce the issue using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.17pre) Gecko/2008070720 Calendar/0.9pre when using a proxy.

No proxy or proxy configured via 'Manual proxy configuration':

Proxy configured via 'Automatic proxy configuration URL':

Reporter, do you use a similar proxy setup? If yes switch to 'Manual proxy configuration' or just replace webcal:// with http:// in the URL.

Thanks a lot for your detailed analysis, Stefan. I can confirm your findings. The error occurs if I use automatic proxy configuration, but not if I use manual proxy settings or no proxy at all.

I believe this is fixed in 1.0pre, please confirm.

Still fails using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1pre) Gecko/20090621 Calendar/1.0pre.

When using manual proxy configuration or http URL it works.
When using automatic proxy configuration it 
 - fails when adding the calendar
 - works during application restart
 - fails when reloading the calendar
