I can login into my etrade brokerage account. 30-35% of the account "features"
do work corectly. In other words, I can switch between 3 accounts within my main
account...  but that is almost all I can do. I can not see details of my
particular account. I always get the LOGIN/PASSWORD prompt. It does not matter
what I enter as the LOGIN/PASSWORD pair. If I enter the correct LOGIN/PASSWORD
combo or wrong LOGIN/PASSWORD combo  I CAN NOT enter into my etrade account. I
thought that there is a problem with cookies. I deleted them. it did not help. I
can LOGIN from the begining (http://us.etrade.com) but I CAN NOT LOGIN again
when I am asked for login AFTER I was already logged into my account. Yes, I
know, my description of the problem sounds very complicted...  but in reality is
not THAT complicated.
In reality, mozilla does not do"something" related to the javascript correctly.
I should not be asked for LOGIN/PASSWORD again after the initial succeseful
LOGIN. I have not used my etrade account for more then 6-7 months. At that time
everything worked correctly. 
Yes, when I LOGIN to my account with MSIE, I am ____not____ asked for the
LOGIN/PASSWORD again if I select any of the features available to user.

To be more specific. This javascript statement 
javascript:GoToETURL('/mortgage/mtgindex.asp?traxui=F_HCLL','borrow2')
pushes me back to LOGIN page. No, not to the INITIAL LOGIN page. It pushes me to
some kind additional or internal LOGIN page. And from there I can not proceed to
 pass authentication phase.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open E-TRADE account 
2. login to your account
3. click, for example, to link "mortgage" 

Actual Results:  
I am asked for LOGIN/PASSWORD combo, which DOES NOT WORK !!!

Expected Results:  
user should not be asked for additional authentication. Mozilla should work like
6-7 month ago.

Yes, it could be that e-trade changed their software too. But in any case,
mozilla is useless for real work with e-trade.
