In the Neopets main page, as you scroll down, you can see a web based clock
showing the NST time. When I use Internet Explorer, the clock can run on itself.
However, when I use Mozilla Firefox, the time just gets stuck at a particular
time, and won't update until you refresh or go to another page. It just show a
static time, instead of running.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Mozilla Firefox
2. Go to http://www.neopets.com

Actual Results:  
The clock script does not run properly

Expected Results:  
The clock script should be running all the time in Mozilla Firefox, instead of
showing a particular time.

WFM.

When the clock is 'stopped', what is the idea of the time of dat that other
programs have?

erm... I think you may have been wrong... I am referring to the clock below, juz
on top of the search box on the left, not on the right. The right is a fixed
one, that I know. But on the left, the clock should be running. It works in IE,
but not firefox. I enabled ALL javascript.

I see the clock now, and it works in 1.0.3 and latest trunk build. 

Please restart firefox in safe mode (start/programs/firefox/firefox safe mode)
