The URL above is a quick example I created to demonstrate the bug.  Basically,
when you give mozilla a url with auth information, but that url does not require
auth, some of the images on that page which do require auth will cause the user
to be prompted.  If you hit cancel for all the password prompts, you'll notice
that not all of the images caused a popup.  Most will use the auth info provided
from the url and load without a problem, but not all.  Obviously, it would be
nice if all the images were loaded properly.  Yes, this is a weird setup, but a
very important one for one of our real sites.  This seems to only happen on
pages with several images.

I tested this with mozilla 1.1, 1.2.1 and netscape 7 under linux and windows.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to url
2. Hit cancel for any auth requests
3. See how some images are loaded, others aren't

Actual Results:  
Some images are loaded properly with the auth info provided on the url, some aren't.

Expected Results:  
Display all images without prompting for auth credentials.
