Say Dylan, could you test Firefox in OSX and see if it lets you through?

If not, if you go to
http://www50.statcan.ca/census2006/webvalidationprocess/seal-16-ScriptWarning_e.htm?lang=e&page=/statcan/LoginEN.jsp&listener=/statcan/Entrust/EventListener.js&signApp=TRUEdoes
it work from there in FF?

I'm curious to see if they only fixed it for Linux FF.
