From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win95; en-US; m16) Gecko/20000613 BuildID: 2000061311 I was reading a story at Slashdot and used the Back button to return to the front page. Instead of bringing up today's (6-19) stories, I got a page from shortly after I DL'd M16 (6-15)...I could tell because of the dates on the page and the fact that the login boxes were available. (I always create a new Profile with each milestone, thus need to relog.) Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. Haven't been able to determine what circumstances it is reproducible in. Marking as Major problem, because if the Back button doesn't work, we're in deep. Maybe related to #42453???

When this happens (seeing it in an NT build from the start of the month), it's visible right here in Bugzilla. Starting with "Bugs already reported today", go to some bug, and then press Back. You will see an old "Bugs already reported today" page. If not, try again tomorrow. Note that following the link "for real" produces the proper result, while using the Forward/Back buttons presents a stale page.
