No connection to Zotero in word-plugin while offline

JPE
I am not sure this is really a sync-problem, but I send it here as it is sync specific: Word-plugin does not work when you are offline. Says "An error has occurred communicating Zotero. Please ensure Firefox is open and try again." Zotero version 1.5a1.r3257, plugin version 1.0b3. Sync-preview itself does not mind at all being offline.

    It is a known problem, apparently without an easy fix (see Dan Stillman's comment below):

    Unchecking "work offline" in FF works as a workaround. Funny I have not noticed this behavior with earlier versions. Thank's for pointing out the previous discussion!
