+NOTE: The example on this page currently won't work out of the box, because
+access to arbitrary XPConnect components through <tt>Components</tt>
+object is disabled for web-page JavaScript.  When we get our security
+story straightened out, we'll restore most access.  For now, you can get around
+it by finding '<tt>pref("security.checkxpconnect", <b>true</b>);'</tt> in the
+preferences file (<tt>all.js</tt>) and setting it to <tt><b>false</b></tt>.

 <p>In the spirit of "worse is better" this somewhat rough guide is being
 released to the world.  It will be expanded upon and improved.
