James,
     So what makes you think there was a fix for this bug? If there was
a fix already upstream bug would have been marked fixed but its not. So
since there isnt a fix for it they should all be invalid. Now as for
upstream they died on the bug and since this is not a new bug and since
the firefox version that was affected at the time was 1.5 and that is no
longer supported. If i had to guess the xulrunner is what fixed this bug
but didnt fix it just works differently, that isnt really a fix. As for
upstream and debian i have already emailed my contacts at both of them
and waiting for a reply. Also please understand we(Ubuntu-MozillaTeam)
dont do bug states as everyone else does. There is plenty of info on
this bug to be "confirmed" but not fix released since there was never a
proper fix to this. Also bugs that are not updated for well over 3
months get Invalid (that goes for mozilla team and bug team)  This is by
no means to fight or argue with you since it is not the place nor time
but i wanted to let you in on how Mozilla team does bugs and that this
bug was never fixed if it was upstream/debian bugs would have been closed.

Kasper, firefox-2.0 wont get a fix for this unless its bundled in with a
new security update but i doubt that Mozilla will speand a whole lot of
time on this since its not a critical bug,
