Can't set zfs permissions on windows 8 pc

[Idiotzoo]

Running the latest release of freenas I can't set ZFS permissions on my windows 8 PC. Both Chrome and Firefox show me the dropdown list but don't let me choose anything. IE let's me choose but never saves.

Just made the change using same version of Chrome on XP and all fine.

Yeah, there's been a handful of people that said Windows 8 + (insert your favorite browser here) doesn't work right. Seems odd to me that it would be a "Windows" issue if you're using a browser besides Internet Explorer, but it is what it is.

The only advice people have been given is "don't use Windows 8". I know. A great solution to the problem but if Microsoft is doing something shifty and is actually responsible for the problems its not something the FreeNAS developers have much of an option to fix.

I've seen this elsewhere too, so something is amiss with windows 8... Not sure how it affects multiple browsers like this, but there we are.
