Details

Using Build 2002032608 for OS X, I am unable to load a URL by dragging a "Web
Internet Location" icon from the desktop to the Mozilla Navigator Window.

Steps to reproduce :

1) Drag and Drop the bookmark icon (or site icon) next to the Location field in
the Navigation Toolbar to the OS X desktop in order to create a "Web Internet
Location" icon. 

2) Now drag and drop that icon back onto the browser window

Expected result :

The browser should render the web page located at the URL associated with the
"Web Internet Location" icon. 

Actual result :

The browser renders up a cool tree of all the icons and folders on the desktop.

Reproducible always on OS X; works for me on MacOS 9/Classic using the other Mac
build.
Hmmm, on a slightly different topic, I seem to periodically be unable to
successfully drag the bookmark/site icon to the desktop to create a "Web
Internet Location" icon.   

I can not reproduce this problem consistantly and so I am not going to file a
bug on it yet, but thought I'd mention it anyway.
Hey, I just now discovered http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122041

I am not getting quite the same results since I am getting a tree of the desktop
contents instead of sheet dialog, but that may just be due to the difference
between January and March builds.

So this one is a dupe.  Sorry about that.
