The updated JSTOR translator has been pushed to clients. Your copy of Zotero should auto-update within 24 hours, or you can update manually by clicking Update Now in the General pane of the Zotero prefs.
My problem seems to be a combination of the issue in this discussion (ie. jstor's new use of DOIs) and a jstor issue discussed elsewhere (proxy issues, eg. at http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/1276/zotero-cannot-deal-with-proxy-access-to-jstor-etc/).
I *do not* see zotero icons (folders or articles) for jstor journals using the old url format, but I *do* see them for jstor journals using the DOI format. This seems to be partly a proxy issue since I see icons for all jstor journals (including those with the old format) when I suppress the proxy.
Here are some examples:
Old format, no folder and article icons when proxy used; icons appear when the jstor proxys in Preferences and type in eg. www.jstor.org/stable/i385429 to the address bar:
British Journal for the History of Science
Absent folder example:
http://libsta28.lib.cam.ac.uk:2066/stable/i385429
Absent article example:
http://libsta28.lib.cam.ac.uk:2066/stable/4028453
I *do* see zotero icons for this journal with DOIs, even when I go through the proxy:
I also *do* see icons for other non-jstor journals that I access through my university's proxy eg.
British Journal for the History of Science (via Cambridge Journals Online):

According to the "general" tab my translators are "up to date", so they should included the updated JSTOR.js translator mentioned earlier in this discussion. Just in case, I deleted the JSTOR.js translator and replaced it with the JSTOR.js file mentioned at the start of this discussion. This didn't work.
Here is a notice from my university posted in Feb 2010, which seems to be about proxys and may be relevant.
The University Computing Service has changed from using a web proxy and cache server to a NAT (Network Address Translation) system. If your browser was configured to use the web cache then you need to remove the settings. There is no longer any need to use the web cache and it will soon be closed down (see the shutdown timetable).

Toggling among my firefox internet settings, from "No proxies", "Auto-detect proxy settings", etc., does not remove the zotero problem.
I obtained the following IDs after trying the first url listed above ie. http://libsta28.lib.cam.ac.uk:2066/stable/i385429:
My report ID is 1259285929.
My Debug ID is D570668135.
Version details:
zotero version 2.0.9

Your university is using a proxying system that presents Firefox and Zotero with URLs that don't in any way indicate that they refer to JSTOR. The current translator expects to see "jstor.org" in the URL.
The only reason you are seeing any icons at all is because some of those pages have DOIs in them, and the DOI detector, which runs on all pages, regardless of URL, is finding them.
The proxy system being used by your institution pretty much completely foils Zotero's translation and detection system. Do all URLs look like that when you access journal databases? Even when you are on-campus? If so, there's not much we can do. If it is possible to get off-campus access via VPN, rather than by proxy, I think these translators will work.
