Paulus, the page you mentioned uses javascript to go to the new location, where
one can register:

javascript: location.href='sigRegister.asp?JN=1001&pid=10172&zid='

Unfortunately the build you're using has a bug causing such javascript
instructions like "location=xyz" to fail (see bug #205989).

So please obtain a newer build of MozillaFirebird, extract the archive into a
new directory and give it a try. Using a newer version should fix your problem.

The latest nightly build can be downloaded from:

http://komodo.mozilla.org/pub/firebird/nightly/latest-trunk/

but since the latest trunk has some profile weirdnesses I'd suggest you just
download
http://komodo.mozilla.org/pub/firebird/nightly/2003-07-05-16-trunk/MozillaFirebird-win32.zip
and give it a try.

I'm going to resolve this bug report as "duplicate" of bug #205989. If you find
a newer version does not solve your problem please feel free to re-open this bug
report!

Thanks for using Mozilal Firebird!
