1. register for quickbase (http://www.quickbase.com/)
2. they'll send you email to confirm the registration
3. click on the link in the email they send you (mine was
https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=DoEnableReg&k=3gc&m=dfgc7)
4. you'll go to https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?a=frontpage
5. they pop up another window with this URL:
https://www.quickbase.com/db/main?act=browserinfo
that says you're using Netscape 5, and you should use IE.
Then you need to change your source to let "navigator.appVersion.substring(0,4)"
return 6.0, right?
My contact at intuit suggests len_bruskiewitz@intuit.com as a contact for this
problem.
Buster: COOL! Can you email them and ask them to fix it?
I'm not a real evangalism guy, I just play one on TV.  :)
Blake has the bug, Intuit responded nicely to my initial query, I'll let them
take it from here.

I added the Intuit contact name here as a courtesy to Blake & Co.  PLEASE do not
abuse this by spamming him about this issue.  Let's get a single mozilla contact
in touch with Intuit and work this out in an orderly fashion.  Thanks!
