It was difficult to imagine why the server should be sending 404 errors only when I was using Firefox. I have the Live HTTP Headers extension and it was showing perfectly valid header records for the requested page but I suspect that somehow Firefox was displaying the headers which should have been sent but somehow corrupting them in the process of sending them. I've now "refreshed" firefox by deleting my firefox profile and everything is now working OK. -- Mike Clarke
