If I enter the url of myy localhost ie. 127.0.0.1 or the ip address of my
current machine ie. 10.0.0.1, and a webserver is defenitely running there, it
won't connect. Also when teh dialog box comes up to ask whether to save the
password, the dialog box is incomplete, only teh yes and no buttons show and not
the "never for this site" nor the message text.
