But the problem seems to be here:

The connection refused error will appear when the browser is launching and will be there until we see a port we can connect to.

We need to have a look into what else was happening when it errored.

This is probably some kind of race condition.  The only place that 'b.webProgress' appears in code is:

http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/base/content/tabbrowser.xml#1380

I'm guessing we're trying to use a tab before it is fully instantiated.
