The soupNazi code was stolen shamelessly from SquirrelSpell.  I use
Mozilla FireBird without trouble.  I'll have to test FireFox.

SoupNazi checks to see if the browser is capable of running Javascript,
and turns off the GPG Plugin if the browser isn't compatible. 
Unfortunately, the GPG Plugin does require Javascript for a bunch of
functions (I'd prefer that it didn't, but we needed it for features we
felt were essential).

We'll test Mozilla FireFox on this end and see if we can resolve the
incompatibility in the SoupNazi function, as Mozilla's JS implementation
is certainly up to the few JS features the plugin uses.

Sorry you're having trouble.  Thanks for the detailed
troubleshooting.Hopefully, we'll have a patch available soon.
