[Nikolay Morozov]

Public bug reported:

I try connect any IIS Server (f.ex Team Foundation Server or Share Point) i got an error 401 or 401.1
"401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.". Log-in dialog doesn't pop-up. Downgrading to Firefox 29 or installing Firefox ESR will solve this problem.
