Does it happen for other extensions? Do you have your disk cache size set to 0?

nevermind, it's just that links on that page are broken for some reason...

Now that's odd.  The database field is empty.

UPDATE `version` SET URI =
'ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/extensions/what_is_a_cookie/what-is-a-cookie_1.0.xpi'
WHERE vid = 1407

Is this really still broken?  I remember fixing this one a week or two ago when
we had the marathon session fixing all the blank URIs...

It seems that this extension no longer has versions.  The problem as described
is fixed.
