Neither Internet Explorer 8 nor Firefox 3.6.3 appear to have full IDN support.

For anybody who cares, this address is the website for the ministry of telecommunications in Egypt.

I am going through the nightmare of registering all our company websites in Arabic. I made the big mistake of asking various members of the company to comment on what exactly the Arabic should be. Usual thing, ask 10 people, get 11 answers.
