Just for the uninitiated, it's "Minefield" and it's not version 4 specific. That is the name used for those kinds of builds (for this particular build & with that blue icon/graphic presented on that page), by the developers. Anyway, why link to them and why have they posted such nonsense escapes me (actually, I've got a pretty good idea, but enough is enough). xd Regards, Vladimir P.S. Also, misspelling Minefield is amusing in itself (ffs :)). Mr. Martin, the site you listed, Tech Today has the following text:

This problem was observed with the first release of FF3. I tried to find a regression range to bracket when the problem may have developed, but once it became clear that the framewoerk itself is at fault, interest in finding a solution evaporated. Here is my bug report on the issue: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=472015 I am pessimistic that the problem will be addressed with FF4. Opera works fine. Safari is works fine.
