Our tests do not replicate this error. Can you please provide more detail and 
sample code (or a link)?

I have the same issue. It's 100% reproducible only on one office PC (win7 64 
bit + firefox 3.6.16 add-ons free). Users also reported this issue. 
Unfortunately we couldn't found steps to reproduce it from stage.

workaround: wrap 213th line in try-catch.

I just tested with Win7 32-bit, Firefox 3.6.15, and could not replicate the 
error.

Adding the try/catch block is costly, and the current code is sound; it already 
contains logic that covers that scenario:

var t = b.appendChild(o);
if (t) {
   //do stuff
   b.removeChild(o);
}

removeChild is only attempted if appendChild was successful.
