The script in the site is old. They use 0.7b version but currect version is 1.0.0.
http://jreject.turnwheel.com/

But the orginal script is not update too. New Firefox version in the script is 8.

Once message sent to the IEC, there are some status info about any appeal.

The name and the direct email of the person seemingly taking care of this issue, will help to somebody?

I am not sure if it's OK to paste this info here...

Yes, that's what I've found, but it was too difficult to me to try viewing code differences and spot the change. 

I think we will have to build reproducing environment unless someone will step in with more knowledge on the script.

The browser detection itself is done by the following script which was appended at the bottom of the rejection script above.

/*

This is actually the latest version according to its website. After manually replacing the script files in a local copy of the site, I can confirm that updating the browser rejection script could help solving this issue.

On both Kubuntu 12.04 Ff13.0b2 and Win XP Ff12.0 - I can't reproduce it anymore.
So, it's probably was fixed by IEC.

May this bug be closed?
