Windows XP (tester)
- en-US (Rich Profile) - RESULT
- P1 Locale - RESULT

10.6 Snow Leopard (tester) - Spot Check - Not yet supported
- en-US - RESULT

OS X 10.5 (abillings)
- en-US (Rich Profile) - RESULT
- P1 Locale - RESULT

Linux - GTK older than 2.10.x (abillings)- RESULT
- Tested with Ubuntu 6.06.
- Distros with GTK older than 2.10.x should not get update (like older Ubuntu)
  - Firefox 3.x requires GTK 2.10.x and newer so it cannot be installed so there is no update to 3.1 b3. This was verified by me.
