Details

I am finding I am being reprompted for my proxy authentication after I visit a site that requires basic authentication. Example: 1) Access the internet and am prompted for proxy authentication by Border Manager. 2) Visit technet.oracle.com and try and read some documentation. 3) I am prompted for basic authentication, which I supply. 4) Read documentation. Repeatedly. 5) Visit non-authenticating site. 6) Prompted for proxy authentication. Repeatedly. 7) Get frustrated. 8) Close mozilla and re-open :-) This might be related to http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32335 which just landed recently. It also makes: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52616 a lot more relevant. Thanks.
