WFM. 
Pasted this in the address bar: http://www.nu.nl:1234/
Received an "Unable to connect" message.
Opened my firewall and clicked "Try again" and I saw that Firefox tried to establish a connection on port 1234.

If this is something different than you meant can you please provide an URL?

I am using a private URL incl a portnumber. Anyway what I see is that the port number is not diplayed in the address bar anymore. It may be a pure cosmetic thing afterall...

Weird for I really see the portnumber in the locationbar.
Have you tried it in Firefox's safemode or with a new profile?
