[Bug 279802] [NEW] firefox 3.0.3 upgrade from ubuntu cannot parse hotmail webmail when replying

[jordilin]

Public bug reported:

I upgraded to firefox 3.0.3 from repos, and now every time I log in to windows live hotmail, windows live does not recognized firefox as a supported browser and tells you to install firefox (between other choices ). I didn't have any problem with firefox 3.0.2. Has anything changed at all? The thing is "I cannot reply emails by using 3.0.3" and I could with 3.0.2.
I use ubuntu hardy 8.04 64bit. 
I just downloaded 3.0.3 from mozilla website and executing firefox from command line, firefox is recognized in hotmail and I can reply emails. So, I guess something is wrong in the upgrade from Ubuntu. I wrote that in ubuntuforums and some people can confirm that. Preemptive answer: Not using hotmail would be a solution, but I need to use it to reply to people who I have always used hotmail with.
