UI Spy can't navigate portions of FireFox

I was hoping to automate FireFox, but I am unable to navigate to certain controls. UI Spy is also unable to navigate to the controls and gives the following exception:

UI Automation tree navigation is broken. The parent of one of the descendants exist but the descendant is not the child of the parent

Is this most likely a FireFox issue or a problem that will be worked out in future versions of .NET 3? Any ideas to get around this?

Thanks!
James

Firefox use XUL to build its UI. Think of them as special HTML elements so spy++ can't really see them. You can access these dialogs using nsIWindowMediator interface.

These guys also looks like they automation firefox dialogs www.artoftest.com
