Details

(Whiteboard: DUPEME? )

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; FreeBSD amd64; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0 Build ID: 20120424101127 Steps to reproduce: I have a proxy with Basic/NTLM suthentication scheme. I have a Unix (FreeBSD) FF version. Across like 12 versions this bug keeps bothering me: authentication window keeps poppin' up, waiting for the only thing: I need to press 'OK' button. This bug is specific to the Linux/Unix version. Windows version with NTLM authentication doesn't show the auth dialog at all. Look at the 'Auto-Auth' addon: I'm not the only one who's bothered. This bug is there like from the first version I've used - from the 1.0 Expected results: Nothing should have happened - I don;t see a point in pressing the 'OK'. I'm quite sure the computer, the automatic and a complex thing build of the silicon and wires, can pretty good press the 'OK' button instead of me.
