Got the "a new version of Deer Park is available" window, with a link for "View more information about this update." Clicking on that link just opens a new browser window with no page loaded. In the JS Console, I always get the following when doing this: Error: [Exception... "'Failure' when calling method: [nsIWritablePropertyBag::getProperty]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://mozapps/content/update/updates.js :: anonymous :: line 612" data: no] Source File: chrome://mozapps/content/update/updates.js Line: 612 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Click Help -> Check for Updates 2. Click on the "View more information" link 3. Get a blank window. Expected Results: A window with information. Or if there actually isn't any info available, there (A) should be or (B) the link should be there.
Sorry, forgot one other tidbit. A bugzilla search turns up bug 306170, in which comment 4 has the same error. That bug has to do with background downloads, so I filed this one instead. Might be the same root cause, or just a common error point.
note that you can't load the page anyway due to bug 305226
