From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.0.0+) Gecko/20020512 BuildID: 20020512 I've been using iWon for a long time. It accumulates points for you based on viewing certain pages. It's all done with JavaScript. Recent builds don't accumulate points for anything other than the initial visit. The older build of Mozilla I use at home does, so I doubt it's a change at their end. This will be hard to test without having an account there. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to iwon.com and get an account. 2. Visit the page as a registered user. You'll accumulate 5 points. 3. Click on a news article. You should get 5 more points, but you won't. 4. Click back to return to the main page. You should get 5 more points, but you don't. 5. Open another browser window and go to iwon.com. You'll get 5 points, but won't get any more in that window. Actual Results: Any browser window only accumulates 5 points. Expected Results: Each window should score points as indicated on the links. It worked until a few weeks ago. I believe it worked in 1.0RC1.
Browser, not engine. Sounds like it might be a cookies issue. Reassigning to Cookies component for further triage -

Is your cookie acceptance pref set to originating-server-only? If so, try changing that to accept-all and let me know if that makes a difference.
Compare bug 139072, "Cookie policy changed between beta and RC1" That was also filed by a user of http://www.iwon.com/
Although the symptoms are different, the patch just posted to bug 137079 will probably fix this bug as well. Can someone who can reproduce this bug please apply that patch and see if it takes care of this problem.
