when i changed work, i arrived to a company that used a .pac that blocked firefox and because of this, almost no one used firefox...

i fixed the .pac and right now, most web developers use firefox (a great thing for compatibility of our sites) and several people in all departments started using firefox.

this is great, but only the admins could change the .pac and none of then knew about this problem, or even cared about it, so all users couldnt do anything to fix this, other than download the pac and fix it... of course, almost no one know how to do it.

this bug is a big problem because only companies and ISPs use .pac files, and user that use this pac arent tecnical enough to find and workaround the problem.
in the end, this people will not use firefox because it is slow.

waiting for ISPs and companies to fix their .pac will take ages, assuming that it will be fixed at all!!
+ wanted1.9 would be nice, but this needs to be fixed, the sooner, the better
