This page renders properly for me (2002110404/NT4)

Reporter: though this might not be related to your problem, but please consider
updating to JRE 1.4.1, since SUN confirmed that 1.3.* had a number of bugs that
might even lead to OS crash.

I experienced the same problem rendering the Yahoo Mail page.  I discovered that
this problem is resolved if you go to Mozilla preferences, and enable "Read
cookies" in the 'Advanced' ; 'Scripts and Pluggins' category.

However, I don't get the email icons normally displayed at the top of
www.yahoo.com.  This may also have something to do with the way the preferences
have been customized.

Reporter, are you blocking pages from reading cookies via JS?

Comment 7

[Simon Paquet [:sipaq]]

No reaction from bug reporter for nearly 10 months. Other people (including me
with a current build) are not seeing this.
