Details

Mozilla 2002020405, Mac OS 9.1

Random pages don't load at all. Normal action descriptions appear in the status 
bar (contacting host, sending page, document: done) but browser window is blank. 
The next page selected, however, might load flawlessly. This is true even for 
pages on the mozilla.org server. Other browsers used seconds later do not 
exhibit this behavior, which indicate to me that these sites are functioning 
properly.
I have not seen this with 2002020520 on win98.  I think there were some problems
with builds a few days ago.  Can you try this with a newer build and report back
if the problem is still there?
Reporter: Does this still occur with a recent nightly? Nightly available at:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/

Do you use a proxy?

Thanks
Have got this to

Build ID 2002041503 Win 2000 SP2

Pages such as http://www.uk-personals.co.uk/menu.html and
http://www.reddwarf.co.uk/ fail to load - all that is returned is open <HTML>
and <BODY> tags plus the same closed

Clearing the disk cache and refreshing cures this. (thought it maybe because my
Netscape 6.2.2 share same profile and cache, but moved cache/profile files for
mozilla and problem still returned)

Don't use Proxy server - standard 56K dial up.

Also at the same time (maybe co-inicidence) my visited links revert to unvisited
and.  But that may be another problem
Build 200204710 (Mac OS 9), downloaded just hours ago, can't open

http://www.mozilla.org/start
http://www.yahoo.com/

Checking the source it has loaded shows only doctype, html, head, title, and 
body opening and closing tags.

Opening monster.com results in a page of JavaScript spewage. Source shows this 
same JavaScript as it appears in the head of the page.

Local pages on my hard disk load correctly.

Opening echocentral.com loads part of the head of the page, some style sheet 
stuff. Nothing visible in the browser.

The empty-cache-and-refresh trick doesn't work.

Using dialup (33.6K), no proxy.
Mac OS 9.1, Mozilla 1.0.0 (build 2002041710)

Disabling old ad-blocking software WebFree clears up this problem.
Ah ha. Mozilla isn't compatible with WebFree (see the Release Notes). Resolving WFM per reporter.
