Details

The back button of Mozilla cathes all sites, even if the site can not be found. For example, if i try to goto http://www.67t67yf490.com from http://www.google.com but then hit the Stop button before a time out, then try to goto http://img-zip.virtualave.net. Once i reach http://img-zip.virtualave.net i click the back button. The back button try to take me to http://www.67t67yf490.com. This can be duplicated very easily.

I hate generating spam of this sort but ... this is a dupe but of a different bug. Bug 11325 is for Global History (tasks|tools| history) whereas bug 14695 is for Session History(Back+Forward buttons). Of note also is bug 29604 which is tracking (bad things of all sorts in session history).
