User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050721 Firefox/1.0.6 (Ubuntu package 1.0.6)

The error page for an Invalid URL Error (i.e. the page similar to IE's "This
page could not be displayed" page -- setable option in prefs.js) contains a
reference to netscape.com which seems inappropriate for a project which is
supposed to have cut its public ties to Netscape.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set browser.xul.error_pages.enabled to true in about:config or prefs.js
2. Visit any malformed URL that would generate a malformed URL error.

Actual Results:  
The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded.

The address (URL) is not a valid format and cannot be read. A typical address
will start with "http://", followed by an address, (e.g. www.netscape.com),
followed by a path to the content (or just "/"). A common cause for the problem
is using backslashes(\) instead of forward slashes (/).

Expected Results:  
Substituted "www.mozilla.org" or similar for "www.netscape.com".
