A managed user in firefox can not access firefox the application hangs. If it opens it takes a very long time to open. I have tryed this on emac's which are PPC and Imacs that are intel as well as macbooks and a powerbook and two apple servers  it does not make a difference. Please have someone look at this. This is a huge issue for educational institutions that put this version in their image. Now our students can not access firefox

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1 open managed account
2.click on firefox
3.wait and wait and wait and wait
Actual Results:  
If it opens it takes 15 minutes to open

Expected Results:  
Firefox wont open

It should have open to be used as a browser

Thomas: Please see Bug 417037 since I think that is what you are hitting. If so I will dupe this bug to that one.

Although it is a partial duplicate to 417037 we dont see the small screen we have a full screen you cant navigate from.

It is a shame that this was allowed to go through after reading the comments on 417037 this has been a known issue for some time now. ( February of 2008 )
