Firefox 1.5.0.5 has a bug (Bug 346167: Windows MediaPlayer plugin stopped working on specific website with FF 1.5.0.5 (mms)) that causes firefox 1.5.0.5 to be unable to play some streaming media, including Windows Media and Real Media, but they worked fine in Firefox 1.5.0.4. It is suggested to release 1.5.0.6 to fix this bug.

By the way, there is a patch for this bug and has been checked in on MOZILLA_1_8_0_BRANCH at 2006-07-28 12:20. I’ll *not* rebuild 1.5.0.5 with this patch because 1.5.0.6 release candidates have been born (from mozillazine).
