What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Use Firefox behind a proxy with authentication 2. Run geo_position_js.getCurrentPosition(success_callback, error_callback); 3. Allow share location

What is the expected output? Sending xhr request to get location.

What do you see instead? [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIXMLHttpRequest.send]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: file:///C:/ooo/ff/components/NetworkGeolocationProvider.js :: anonymous :: line 322" data: no] http://code.google.com/apis/gears/gears_init.js Line 49

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Firefox 3.6.6 behind a proxy

Please provide any additional information below. The issue seems to be coming from Firefox as Chrome works well under the same conditions. error_callback is not called. The calling page is authenticated with the proxy.
