137610 - Talkback doesn't work through proxy with user / passwd

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 36545

(Core Graveyard :: Talkback Client, defect)

Description

[jrdepriest]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.9+)
Gecko/20020404
BuildID:    2002040403

The proxy server used at my corporate location requires a user name and password.
On the rare occasion that I can crash Mozilla, Talkback is unable to report the
crash information because I am not asked to authenticate through the proxy server.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Be sitting behind a proxy server that requires a user name and password.
2. Crash Mozilla.
3. Enter the information that the Talkback Quality Feedback Agent asks for.
4. Try to send it and wait.

Actual Results:  Nothing gets sent.

Expected Results:  It should work.  It should either let you configure the user
name and password (poor solution, security-wise) or should prompt you for it.

If I knew of a consistent way to crash the browser, I would be able to try this
out using different settings and different third-party apps to help Mozilla out
(such as Proxomitron which will automagically enter my proxy user name and
password for me).
