Zotero can not import bibliographic reference anymore: ID 366953574

Hello,
I realized that the little zotero icon (it looks like a paper sheet) in firefox 4 search bar does not work anymore. If I browse a scientific journal and want to import a reference + its pdf, the little red rectangle open at the bottom right of firefox window to indicate that Zoterto attempts to import the reference, but the rectangle is completely empty and in the end nothing happened. It does not happen in all sites, though (the problem arised in PLOS Biology website, among others) but it is sufficiently annoying to make me intervene on this forum.
The ID for this problem is 366953574
Thanks!
Nelly

    Hi,
    Here are some examples:

    - nothing is imported on these websites
    http://www.plosbiology.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pbio.1000357
    http://www.genetics.org/content/180/1/567.full?sid=608bad68-c09d-4c0e-9cab-2d09c61caebb

    -On these ones, the importation is very slow, like something in zotero is running in the background which slows things down and prevents the pdf to be imported (the option for attaching the pdf is ticked yet).

    Thanks for your help!
