Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 236682

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Christian]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0

I tried to load these pages in Firefox 1.0
http://web.de or http://golyr.de
The do not display. The throbber rotates, then browser status bar displays:
ready, but the page remains gray (or white, the default background color anyway)
On IE the pages load, as they used to with Firefox 0.7- 1.0 RC2. I do not
understand the reasons.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. type www.web.de or web.de or freemail.de into location bar.
Actual Results:  
Pages do not display (although favicon does, funnily, might be from cache)

Expected Results:  
Display website.

OK, just resolved the non-diplay issue: Clearing the cache made Firefox load the
page. But why didn't do so in the first place? I'll leave this bug here as to
further inquiry.
