Ah, ok...found something on it. 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=461820

But https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402204 would seem to indicate 
that it is/was a mozilla bug. As you can see from the mozilla bug report, 
this bug was first reported in November 2007.

Good to hear sidux has responsive developers. I tried sidux some months ago, 
just for a day or so because it was new, and I quite liked it.

Kind regards,
