From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 4.0)
BuildID:    20010827

In the Search form (top left of page) both radio boxes display as if they are 
checked on initial load, although in reality only the "Games" radio is 
checked.  When selecting "DVD" the "Games" selection is cleared - but when 
selecting "Games", the "DVD" radio is not cleared so both appear to be 
selected.   This is appearance only.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Browse to the site.  Observe that both "DVD" and "Games" appear selected.
2. Click on the "DVD" radio.  Now "Games" is cleared and only "DVD" is selected.
3. Click back to "Games".  The "Games" radio is now selected, but the "DVD" 
radio has NOT been cleared.

Actual Results:  When "Games" is selected, both radio controls appear 
selected.  When "DVD" is selected, only "DVD" is shown as selected.

Expected Results:  Only one radio control should be shown as if selected at any 
given time.

To search for a DVD you have to remember to manually click on "DVD" - even 
though it *appears* as if it's already selected.  This could cause problems 
with end users who assume that a selection has actually been selected - when, 
in reality, it hasn't.

- on load only DVD is selected
- selecting DVD clears Games
- selecting Games clears DVD

I removed Mozilla, wiped out all directories and registry files, and installed
the latest build.

Now WFM.  My apologies for wasting everybody's time.  I will follow the above
from now on before reporting anything.
