[HTTPS-Everywhere] United.com broken?

[Erik Harris]

I just booked a flight on united.com, and when I first visited, the page 
was unclickable. The viewport was simply locked up, and didn't respond 
to anything (not even a Ctrl-R or Ctrl-Shift-R reload, kinda like a 
Flash app, which overrides Firefox' keyboard shortcuts).  The browser 
itself wasn't frozen, and other tabs worked fine.

Then I disabled the united.com rule in HTTPS-Everywhere 2.0dev.2, 
reloaded the page (http://www.united.com/), and I was able to log into 
my account (which took me to secure server) and everthing worked fine.

Stranger still, if I go directly to https://www.united.com with the 
HTTPS-Everywhere rule disabled, the site works fine. If I re-enable the 
rule, it's a static, unusable page again.

I'm using HTTPS-Everywhere 2.0dev.2 on the current Firefox 8.0 beta in 
Windows 7 Pro x64.
