E.g. try http://www.aaaa.aaaaxx/ to enter, Firefox will hang for a second or two, then it will offer to dial-up a connection poping up Windows Network Connections (dial-up) dialog to popup. No proxy used. DNS server is dnsmasq relaying to the real name servers. Really annoying bug. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enter any non-existent domain, e.g. http://www.aaaa.aaaaxx/ Actual Results: Windows Network Connections (dial-up) dialog to popped up. Expected Results: Just a dns resolution error. I believe this bug was in 2.0.2.. or 2.0.4, but has been fixed in the latest 2.0.6. Now it returns in 3.0.
