From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.3) Gecko/20010803 BuildID: 2001080312 Sometimes when opening a link in a new window or even just clicking on a link, the new page i was expecting does not appear. Instead the referring page appears, but with the new page's address in the navigation toolbar. Clicking reload repeatedly (on the order of 10 times) sometimes fixes the problem. Similarly, when loading a new page the status bar sometimes shows the URL for previously viewed content. Sometimes when clicking a link the correct address shows in the status bar (when the mouse is hovered over the link) but after clicking the link it does not show in the navigation toolbar and the page does not load. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Mozilla, type "www.google.com" in the navigation bar and hit enter. 2. Type "linux documentation project" in the text entry field and click google search. 3. Try clicking some of the links that are returned. Actual Results: The first link returned, http://www.linuxdoc.org/, did not work at first but after clicking reload repeatedly it started working and then continued to work after restarting mozilla. The third link returned for me is http://www.uni-paderborn.de/Linux/mdw/, that one when clicked tried to load http://www.google.com/Linux/mdw/ which did not exist and resulted in an error from google. After repeatedly hitting "back" and re-clicking the link it eventually worked. Expected Results: Mozilla should have loaded the page referred to by the link that was clicked. I did not observe this bug in Mozille 0.9.2. It appeared for me in 0.9.3.
Reporter: Are you using some kind of proxy / junkbuster ?
Yes, i am using junkbuster. Junkbuster has not caused problems with Mozilla 0.8, 0.9.2, Netscape Navigator 4.x, or MS Internet Explorer. I have only observed problems with Mozilla 0.9.3, leading me to suspect the junkbuster proxy is not the cause.
Junkbuster is broken. You can use it if you set Preferences/debug/networking and change Http/1.1 to http/1.0 dupe of 38488 (junkbuster is broken - use http/1.0 to get arround this) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 38488 ***

Thanks for the solution. I apologize for not noticing the previous bugs; since junkbuster works with other browsers i didn't think to suspect it to be the problem.
Other bworser work without a problem because: NS4.7x is using Http/1.0 IE5.x use Http/1.0 for all proxies
