What my cause a normal external script on my app to show up sometimes
in Firebug's NET panel as 'Aborted' and not being loaded?

Is this a server issue, or the browser going nuts?

A: 

It is a bug in FireBug causing it to echo noise events. Abort is a normal condition for the end of an HttpRequest.

I think that it is going to be fixed in the next release.

so this is false positive you say? can this happen and requests really might get Aborted?

@vsync - not a false positive. A true positive, but the abort should be discarded, i.e. not reported, as this is a normal terminal state for an XMLHttpRequest. E.g. to reuse an XMLHttpRequest, as some frameworks do, `.abort()` must be called before reuse. Does this make sense?
