27060 - cannot load nsa.gov [4.xp]

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 22886

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[sarnold]

Using tuesday 02/08/00 CVS built on my machine (more info easily available! :) I
cannot view the page http://www.nsa.gov/.

Using lynx, I get redirected to http://www.nsa.gov:8080/about_nsa/index.html.
Using netscape communicator 4.7 on the same computer also redirects me to
http://www.nsa.gov:8080/about_nsa/index.html.

Typing http://www.nsa.gov:8080/ directly into the address bar seems to work well

This sounds like an HTTP Refresh header problem. This would make a dup of bug 
17570.

Comment 2

It does look roughly like a dup of 17570; but, not having experimented much with
that bug, I don't know that for sure, so I would rather not resolve/dup this bug
myself. If it is a dup, why didn't the patch from mid november fix the problem?

Someone who has worked on 17570 could mark this a dup with no complaints from me. :)

Thanks!

The www.nsa.gov is doing something special -- the headers it sends on the 
redirect are malformed (but mozilla should still cope). See bug #22886.
This is the same bug.
