User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021012

When viewing an entire thread found by a Google groups search, a summary of the 
thread appears to the left of the posts when using IE. This does not appear in 
Mozilla.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Visit http://groups.google.com
2.Enter a search term
3.Select a search result, and click the search button
4.Assuming that the article is part of a thread of two or more articles, a 
link, 'Complete Thread' will appear at the top right of the page.  Click it.
5.In IE, notice that you get a thread summary to the left of the post.  In 
mozilla, notice that it does not appear.

Actual Results:  
Thread summary frame does not appear.

Expected Results:  
Thread summary frame should appear to left of main frame.
I get a thread summary, but no indication of the current message.  (IE and
Netscape show an orange triangle next to the current message in the left pane)
This now works perfectly for me (complete with the orange 'current article' marker).

I haven't changed the build I'm running since I reported this (and in any case
this has never previously worked for me in any version of Mozilla).

I guess Google have fixed the problem, and this bug can be closed?
