The GeckoActiveXObject function in Mozilla Firefox before 3.0.16 and 3.5.x
before 3.5.6, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.1, generates different exception
messages depending on whether the referenced COM object is listed in the
registry, which allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive
information about installed software by making multiple calls that specify
the ProgID values of different COM objects.
