 Version: 3.4.2 on Firefox 25

 Many sites have a file upload feature that uses AWS S3's ability upload
 files directly to S3 using CORS.  There is a jquery library that makes
 this easy.

 If HTTPS everywhere is installed on Firefox 25 the OPTION request is never
 made.  If HTTPS Everywhere is disabled and firefox is restarted the upload
 will work.
