From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Internet Explorer
BuildID: 2000072520
The home button stops functioning if the home page is set to an ip-adress with
an custom port.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set the home page of mozilla to something like 127.0.0.1:10106 (or whereever
you have access to a webserver which does not use the default port 80. It seems
that you have to enter the ip-address. Using the DNS name works.
2. Stop Mozilla
3. Restart Mozilla
4. The homepage loads.
5. Press home on the toolbar or use the home menu item.
Actual Results: 6. The status bar displays "Connecting to [ip]..."
7. Nothing happens. (The browser doesn't do redraws anymore).
(8. You may go to the URL-bar and press enter to reload the homepage)
Expected Results: Pressing the home-button should load the start page.
Looks to me as if there is a problem with DNS vs. ip names - like if some
components don't recognize that 127.0.0.1 is an ip-address and not a DNS name.
But I may be wrong in this point.
BTW.: There is a related error - which might be just a symptom of the same bug,
so I don't file a separate report.
If the startpage is set to localhost:port AND port is not the standard port AND
there is no web-server running at localhost:port _then_ Mozilla tries to connect
to keyword.netscape.com.

Putting on [nsbeta2-] radar. Not critical to beta2.
-> browser general. This needs to go to whoever tests the home button.
