It worked for me under F9 using both FF and Konq.
Then it just stopped working (I didn't change anything) with both FF and
Konq.
And there was a guy who reported that this didn't work under MAC neither
with Safari nor with FF.
And now it works with both (for me).
So my conclusion is: something wrong on the server-side (somewhere
inside the highly-optimized load-balancers) or inside the too
UNunderstandable JavaScript which tries to load the comments from the
server.
