Under Preferences > Advanced > Forms and Passwords, the words "obscured" 
and "obscuring" are misspelled (they're spelled with double r's)

trivial
this is pretty embarrassing, and an easy fix.

change would be to \xpfe\components\prefwindow\resources\locale\en-US\pref-
wallet.dtd
lines 24-25

couple things --don't think the patch submitted was ever checked in. and, afaik,
obsuring and obscured are supposed to be spelled with only one 'r':

http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=obscure says:

v. tr. ob·scured, ob·scur·ing, ob·scures. 

           1.To make dim or indistinct: Smog obscured our view. See Synonyms at
block. 
           2.To conceal in obscurity; hide: "Unlike the origins of most nations,
America's origins are not
             obscured in the mists of time" (National Review). 
           3.Linguistics. To reduce (a vowel) to the neutral sound represented
by schwa ().

so, this is really invalid. :-)
