Not the FUCKING USELESS ERROR MESSAGE THAT FIREFOX GAVE ME:

Sadly Firefox is not alone in this hatred. Safari is the same way (no, it's not www.google.com, it's localhost.), as is (as far as I know) everything that uses the CFNetwork stuff.

At least those things all pick up on the global "I'm on HSDPA, use a proxy. Now I'm at work... wait, no, we don't use a proxy over wifi..."
