Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 348997

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Pierre-André Galmes]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; fr; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009011913 Firefox/3.0.6

when you open firefox with tabs behind a proxy that requires
authentification, each tab will require you to validate your login and
password several times.
As each time that I click on the ok button, I only see one new image
loaded, I think that each time Firefox needs to load a new file, it
will not check if you already authentified yourslef to the proxy.

For me this is quite annoying, since each time I open Firefox with 10
tabs, I have to click 20 to 100 of times on the ok button. Sometimes,
that even makes firefox crash !

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set a proxy and configure FF to use it
2. open Firefox and create tabs
3. Close Firefox
4. open Firefox again


Actual Results:  
Now, you have to click many times to load all tabs...

Expected Results:  
Just give my password and login once for all tabs.
