User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3

I'm using Firefox Branch Build from August 25, 2004.

When I go to my Navy OWA website.  It prompts my from my username and password.
 The page loads, when I click an email, it asks my for my username and password
again.  

Background:

The Navy OWA website require a certificate to authenticate with the webserver. 
I have this certificate installed into firefox.  This works fine in Firefox
0.9.3 and in branch builds 8/20/2004 and earlier.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Go go https://webmail.nmci.navy.mil/exchange/
2.  Enter Username and password
3.  Click on an email
4.  Username and password fields are blank.
5.  I'm forced to enter a username and password again.

Actual Results:  
I'm forced to enter my username and password serveral times to view email.

Expected Results:  
I should be able to enter my username and password once and able to use NMCI
webmail without re-entering my password.

I've tried this on serval computers.  I've tried it with both new and old profiles.

Other OWA websites work fine.  It just seems to be a problem with OWA websites
that require you to have a certificate installed to authenicate with the web server.
