User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3

Often when using Tools->Extensions->Get More Extensions, the extension site has,
in its Most Recent panel a different set of extensions than results from
following the Newest link
<http://update.mozilla.org/extensions/showlist.php?type=E&application=firefox&category=Newest&numpg=>
under Categories.

For instance, just now ChatZilla 0.9.64f (August 11, 2004 8:17:27pm) was number
2 in the Most Recent panel, but it did not appear at all in the Newest Category.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use Get More Extensions link in the Extensions pop-up
2. Compare results in most recent panel with the results of the Newest Category
3. Observe they are often not in agreement.

Actual Results:  
As described

Expected Results:  
Most Recent panel and newest Category should show the same data for the first 5
positions.
