From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.3.39 i586; en-US; m16) Gecko/20000723

On some pages, if you click on a link and then hit the back button, the scroll
position will be wrong.  For example, Mozilla might show the top of the original
page, even though the selected link is not visible there.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to the above link
2.Scroll down a couple of pages and hit a link
3.Hit the back button
4.Note that you're now somewhere else, and you've completely lost the context of
what you were doing.

Actual Results:  Now viewing the top of the original page	

Expected Results:  Should be viewing at exactly the same position, down to the
pixel, as when I originally clicked on the link.

Variations of this bug have been in Netscape forever.
