WFM with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/2007051502 Firefox/2.0.0.4 and trunk.

Reporter, can you confirm whether you're seeing this problem with the latest version of Firefox?

This particular problem no longer seems to happen.  A similar problem occurs that prevents further information from being entered into the address bar, but that bug report already exists at:  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=298678

Resolving this bug as WORKSFORME per comment 4. Any new problems you have should be filed as new bugs (searching for old ones, first, as you've done before).
