Firefox 3.6 doesn't work with VMWare Virtual Machine Console Plug-in but IE does. Previous versions of FF worked fine. Will this be fixed in a new FF release?

When I try to open the Virtual Machine console I get the error:

Cannot access virtual machine console. The request timed out.

I had no problem with this until Firefox did an upgrade to 3.6 and now it doesn't work and I have to use IE to open the console.

I can see lots of other people have this same problem so am wondering when it will be fixed.
