Firefox can "not find" a local .html file on my harddisk if it's name contains arabic characters. The same problem appears if a .html file without (!) arabic characters in the filename is located in a directory which contains arabic characters.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a .html file and save it on the harddisk
2. rename the file that it contains arabic characters
3. open the file with Firefox

Actual Results:  
"File not found" message appears

Expected Results:  
open and display the file properly
Reporter, please update to firefox 1.5 if you can. this should resolve your problem.
