There are regressions in recent Mozilla builds that prevent the authentication
dialog from functioning properly. This regression seems to keep popping up
once in a while. The password textbox is then broken, and Mozilla tries to
authenticate you with an empty password field.

Often, you can bypass it by typing the password in a seperate text window,
then copying and pasting it into the password textfield. This has worked for
me on Linux.

Other than this problem I have had no trouble managing Zope servers with
Mozilla, or at least not much.. it all depends on the quality of the nighty
build. Try a newer or older build, I'd say.
