User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; hu-HU; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

After loggging in http://freemail.hu possibly a redirection occurs in background
which causes an infinite loop, and the next page doesn't load. In the status bar
vibrates the "Loading..." / "Waiting for..." message. The site can be normally
accessed using IE or Mozilla 1.6.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Enter http://freemail.hu
2.Log in
3.Wait...

Actual Results:  
The next page didn't load.

Expected Results:  
Present a page, not an empty white

The page that possibly causes error (copied from Show Source):
<html>
<head>
<title>[origo] porta</title>
<meta http-equiv='Refresh' content='0;
url=http://freemail.hu/fm/auth1?status=ok&tid=AMNto-Dc5I-0pULGwWZW'>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050427
Firefox/1.0+

I tried to reproduce this but couldn't - I got the login page. Certainly if 
a page were constantly redirecting to itself, you would very likely see what
you described.

Is the site's error handling faulty? Is there a problem with cookies?

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
