48898 - Browsing is wonky when using Junkbuster Proxy.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 38488

(Core :: Networking, defect, P3)

Description

[Kevin Fisher]

If you are using the Junkbuster Proxy (see http://www.junkbuster.com/, normal
browsing can be a very frustrating experience.  If you are using this proxy with
Mozilla then you will find that somehow, the URL you are visiting will get
'mixed' with the URL of the last site you were at.  For example, if I'm on
http://linuxtoday.com and I try to visit the Dr. Fun page, I'll get a 'page
unknown' error as the browser attempts to access
http://linuxtoday.com/path-to-dr-fun.

Note that this behaviour is totally random from what I can tell, but it happens
very easily and very often if you're using the Junkbuster.  The most reliable
reproduction of this bug seems to happen when you visit the 'forums' section on
www.somethingawful.com or lists.kde.org.

If I disable all proxy usage, then the problem goes away.  This problem does not
occur with Netscape 4.X.  I'm testing this with Mozilla Seamonkey build ID
2000081308.

This is bug 38488, I think. Reporter, if you disagree, please say so.
