User-Agent:       User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (OS/2; U; OS/2 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113 TorMozilla

When Mozilla 1.7 or 1.8a1 gets HTTP response with Cache-Control field, which
contains "no-store", it fails to get page and render it. It appears on both
proxy and direct HTTP requests, under HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1, with pipelining or
without it. 
Here's simple perl script, which reproduces problem:

-- cut --
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use warnings;

use CGI qw/:standard/;

my $query = new CGI;
my $type = $query->param('type') || 0;

if ($type == 0) {

print <<EOT;
Content-Type: text/html
Date: Fri, 18 Jun 2004 16:30:12 GMT
Connection: close

<html>
<head><title>OK</title></head>
<p>OK</p>
<p>This is type 0</p>
<p><a href="./moz-test.pl?type=1">Goto type 1</a></p>
EOT

} elsif ($type == 1) {

print <<EOT;
Content-Type: text/html
Cache-Control: no-store
Date: Fri, 18 Jun 2004 16:30:12 GMT
Connection: close

<html>
<head><title>OK</title></head>
<p>OK</p>
<p>This is type 1</p>
<p><a href="./moz-test.pl?type=0">Goto type 0</a></p>
EOT
}
-- cut --

Firefox 0.9 doesn't contain this bug.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put perlfile under http server, set it executable
2. Open this file with browser
3. Click on link several times

Actual Results:  
Only "type 0" page is shown.

Expected Results:  
Both pages have to be shown.
This reads a lot like bug 184304.
This is WORKSFORME with Firefox 0.9 under Fedora Core 2.  The page that shows up
on link clicks toggles between Type 0 and Type 1.

Can you please provide a HTTP log per the instructions provided here:
