[hobbit] purple status bug in 3/27/08 snapshot

I've seen a similar behavior.  In version 4.2.0 standard (no patches).

Sometimes, when viewing full history and clicking one of the non-green
historical dots, it will try to download bb-histlog.sh rather than
execute it.  But I've only seen this using Firefox, never with IE.  And
only when clicking non-green dots.  Green ones always execute the
script.  I figured it wasa browser issue, but that does't explain why it
always works with the green dowts but not the other colors.

I am using 4/5/08 snapshot and info icon worked OK.  I was able to
duplicate the problem. I turned off my hobbitclient and waited for
client statuses to go purple. Then I got the error by clicking on the
info icon. I think it may happen before it turns purple too, if the
hobbit server is restarted with the client not reporting or after about
10-15 minutes. When I uncomment the hobbitclient process the info icon
works again.

What I am also seeing that is similar is when I click on any yellow cpu
icons in status history or event log report it wants to download
bb-histlog.sh.

I went back and checked 65 events since the 5th and these links have the
same problem. Seems a little random at the moment.
