I just tried this in a current Firefox. The site worksforme, if we're
talking about the ZIP upload on the front page.
The code you mentioned is commented out in their JS, like so:
/* KRC 6/19/2008 #8234
...
*/
They still have various other silly checks (like requiring a filename
that's at least 6 characters long without telling the user that's what
they require), but that's not really relevant to this discussion.
