304057 - Back / Forward buttons not loading pages correctly

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 304003

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Brandon Amedee]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050809 Firefox/1.0+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050809 Firefox/1.0+

Upon navigating Back or Forward on any site, Firefox (Deer Park Alpha 2 Nightly)
isn't usually loading the page properly. It will sit there loading with a blank
screen until the Stop button is pressed. When I hit Stop, it will then display
the page.

This is probably a regression?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load any page.
2. Click a link.
3. Press the Back button (or otherwise navigate backwards or forwards).

Actual Results:  
Firefox displays a blank page and the throbber continues, though the title is
shown in the titlebar.

Expected Results:  
Displayed the page.

I can confirm this bug on Linux.

Reload works either. 
As the same behaviour can also be experienced with
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050809
SeaMonkey/1.0a Mnenhy/0.7.2.10006
may be the product should be changed to 'Core'.
