Build: 2000051808, MacOS 8.6 To reproduce: * Start Mozilla in an environment where authentication to a manually set proxy server is required. * Open the Proxy category in the Preferences dialog, and enter the name and port numbers of the proxy server in the relevant fields. * Try to visit a Web page. What should happen: * The Web page displays. What actually happens: * `The connection was refused when attempting to contact www.mozilla.org.' * Returning to the Preferences dialog and clicking in the proxy fields (to show their contents, per bug 37650) shows that the proxy hostnames entered have been remembered, but not the port numbers. * Inspecting prefs.js shows the same result -- proxy hostnames are present, but not port numbers.

Dogfood, because while this bug is open I can't do my QA job properly. Also nominating for nsbeta2.

Matthew/tever, d'you think this is the same as bug 39779...?

Was just about to say so myself. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 39779 ***
