Weird, I see the "No Results" Behavior against Firefox 3.6, 4 & 5, but not beyond.
This is independent on logged in or not.

I've tried to reproduce this with the different versions above, but the result was random. Sometimes it worked, sometimes not. I imagined that it was slightly easier to get a WFM if I used an absolutely new, fresh profile, than a used one - even if I had used Clear Recent History after a failed trial. Some randomness fooling me?

I also tested Chromium and Opera and reproduced the bug with both of them:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/12.0.742.112 Safari/534.30
Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux x86_64; U; en) Presto/2.9.168 Version/11.50
