User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20030212 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20030212 If Mozilla is launched while the computer is offline (i.e. NOT dialled in to an ISP) then when the computer is later connected, Mozilla can't find any servers or domains at all. It brings up a dialog box that is something like: "www.whateverhost.com cannot be found. Please try again." It brings up this window immediately, so it's not even trying to find a site. If I quit Mozilla and restart it (while still dialled in), then it finds and loads the pages fine. If I disconnect from my ISP, but leave Mozilla loaded, then reconnect, it also seems to work fine after reconnection. The problem only seems to occur when I launch Mozilla while the computer is offline. I am not using any web proxies. This seems to be a brand new bug in 1.3b (1.3a worked fine). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Ensure computer is not connected to the internet 2.Launch Mozilla 3.Dial in to an ISP and connect to the internet 4.Attempt to find any web page using Mozilla Actual Results: Mozilla does not load any web page. It immediately brings up a dialog box telling me that the web site cannot be found. Expected Results: Mozilla should have found the web site and loaded the page I am not using any proxies. I am directly connected to the internet and have not changed my settings since switching from 1.3a to 1.3b yesterday.
