309958 - Problem with URL, trying to access pages from the wrong site

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[gunner_uk2000]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050908 Firefox/1.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050908 Firefox/1.4

When clicking the links on the 7th Post down, it tries to accessing them from
the dearwandy site, even though the URL is for overclockers.co.uk. After that
some links on the OC site try to open from dearwandy, even though the URL is for
the OC site. Works ok in IE

Seems to be a bug with the Fireforx beta.

Reproducible: Always

When I use  Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) as user-agent it
goes to the right address.

This bug was reported on Firefox 2.x or older, which is no longer supported and will not be receiving any more updates. I strongly suggest that you update to Firefox 3.6.3 or later, update your plugins (flash, adobe, etc.), and retest in a new profile. If you still see the issue with the updated Firefox, please post here. Otherwise, please close as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME
