Ok, then I think there is definitely something wrong on the ssh side, not
the firefox side.
I'm using Edgy.
firefox -v shows "Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.3"

When I set the Socks Host to be 127.0.0.1 port 1080 and then ssh into my
linux box with " ssh -XC -D 1080 -v uber.linux.box", I can connect and
browse just fine.
-v output when I browse includes:
=

It's possible that the socks is silently failing and firefox is falling
back to direct connection, but I don't think so.
Perhaps the version of sshd that comes with cygwin doesn't support dynamic
ports? If you can ssh outside of your network, I'm happy to let you ssh
into the same server I am if you would like to test the firefox portion of
it.
