User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; sl; rv:1.9.0.7) Gecko/2009021910 Firefox/3.0.7 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; sl; rv:1.9.0.7) Gecko/2009021910 Firefox/3.0.7 Proxy access (needed username and pasword) is protected with master password. If open Firefox with more tabs, for example 5 tabs, then user must enter master password 5 times !!!!? and also in between for every tab have to confirm proxy password. The only smart way is, that user should enter master password only once per session and that should be accepted for all tabs - also without confirming stored user proxy password for every tab. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. open few tabs (you must have proxy access protected with password) 2. protect that password with master password. 3. crash Firefox or save sesion. 4. open sesion (or chrashec firefox) with 10 tabs 5. enter master password and confirm proxy password for 1 tab 6. enter master password and confirm proxy password for 2 tab 7. enter master password and confirm proxy password for 3 tab 8. enter ....... do that for all 10 tabs and you should soon get the idea of the problem. Actual Results: as describet above Expected Results: as described above 1. Now, I enter master password and confirm only proxy access for first tab. 2. Then I for all other tabs click Cancel for master password and cancel for proxy password. 3. Then I chose from short tab menu "reload all tabs", and all tabs are reloded (from input of master password and confirming proxy access password only once for first tab). Why Firefox expect pass (master and confirm proxy access password) for every tab, bat it can as described above, on reload command, use the same passwords for all tabs.
