This was fixed in Bugzilla 2.18 (rc3 available for download) and further. I
assume you're using 2.16 on Windows; this is the only case where this could appear.

I suggest to upgrade to 2.18 or back-port to 2.16 the patch that you can find in
bug 143490.

I strongly suggest getting 2.18rc3, this wasn't the only Windows-related fix
since 2.16.  2.18rc3 doesn't have to be hacked on to make it work on Windows.
