 Tor 1.2.0 from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2275 breaks
 certain features in the Flock browser (available from flock.com).  A user
 reported this at
 http://getsatisfaction.com/flock/topics/tor_button_problems.

 The problems I see:
 1. Home page does not appear when Flock starts.
 2. Favorites in the Favorites Toolbar do not appear.

 Steps:
 1. Open Flock, install extension.  Clear the error console to see errors.
 2. Restart the browser.

 Expected Results:
 Flock shows the home page.

 Actual Results:
 Blank home page, no favorites.  The error console shows the following
 errors:

 Five instances of the following error:
 Error: this._real_history is undefined
 Source File:
 file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/VanceCh/Application%20Data/Flock/Browser/Profiles/gpoesys6.adadtttqwe/extensions/%7Be0204bd5-9d31
 -402b-a99d-a6aa8ffebdca%7D/components/ignore-history.js
 Line: 63

 One instance of:
 Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "'[JavaScript Error:
 "this._real_history is undefined" {file:

 calling method: [nsIFactory::createInstance]"  nsresult: "0x80570021
 (NS_ERROR_XPC_JAVASCRIPT_ERROR_WITH_DETAILS)"  location: "JS frame ::
 chrome://browser/content/browser.js :: prepareForStartup :: line 765"
 data: yes]

 Reproducible: Always.

Comment:

 Closing this as the Flock project has ended and support also ended in
 2011.
