please try in Safe Mode. WFM
Tried safe mode. Tried new profile. Tried new install with new profile and no add-ons. Tried disabling computer firewall. Tried computer in safe mode with networking. Tried installer builds. Tried zip builds. Result is consistent with any build after one shown (downloaded and tested "hourly" builds before and after).
OK, try in today's build, 20081022. You will have to download a new version of it and install in a different directory.
I have tried it up through today's nightly. Are you saying one of the new hourlies should have a fix? I tried all the hourlies between yesterday and this morning to find where it broke. Have not tried anything since the nightly (2008-10-22-03...)build. I can confirm the regression point, I tried them all. What specific hourly build should have a fix??
The latest hourly I could find runs: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1b2pre) Gecko/20081022 Minefield/3.1b2pre ID:20081022130230

Resolution: --- → FIXED
Please only use WORKSFORME. A patch has not bee checked into the tree (at least that I can find), so WFM for now, unless the patch that caused and/or fixed this is found.
