Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20021217
When visiting http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q317949
using a Mozilla nightly from 17 December 2002, I see two copies of the
information displayed in the central area.
Experimenting with UA spoofing shows that spoofing Mozilla to be Netscape 6.2
makes the problem go away, but spoofing to Netscape 7.0 still shows the problem.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q317949
Actual Results:
Two copies of the information starting with "Socket Sharing Creates Data" is
displayed.
Expected Results:
One copy of the information should be displayed

I do not see this in win2k with the xp ua string at all. The fact that it went
away using a NS 6.2 ua string is interesting but it is not clear to me that this
is really evangelism since we can not reproduce it using your ua string.
Rob, update your build and see if you can still reproduce this.
I have gone back to the released version 1.3a and also discovered that a new
profile did not exhibit the same effect.
Much playing with various files in the my profile directory enabled me to work
out that it was due to two lines in cookies.txt:
broken profile:
.support.microsoft.com TRUE / FALSE 1041379199 sd TECH
.support.microsoft.com TRUE / FALSE 1041379199 SD TECH
working profile:
.support.microsoft.com TRUE / FALSE 1041379199 sd GD
.support.microsoft.com TRUE / FALSE 1041379199 SD GD
I have no idea why my profile ended up with those problem cookies!
I have also resolved the bug as invalid as it's the only choice available that
makes sense.
