From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (WinNT; U)
BuildID: 2001040404 (duplicated in 2001040504)
Using build 2001040404 & 2001040504 -- Going to any SSL site (logging into
Hotmail.com, https://www.springmail.com, using my bank's online services,
logging into my ISP's web forms) crashes PSM, and then produces this message in
the browser window:
"Host Required in Request
Description: Your browser did not send a hostname as part of requested the url.
The configuration of this proxy requires a hostname to sent as part of the url"
After that message, Mozilla either locks up or goes to 95%+ CPU time (PII 450).
Have removed and reinstalled, and I am behind a proxy, accessed through an IP
address (and manually set). My platform is WinNT SP6.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start up build 2001040404 (behind proxy?)
2. Go to https://www.springmail.com
Actual Results: First PSM crashes, then browser pops up error, then Mozilla
dies or takes up almost all the CPU.
Expected Results: Opened up SSL-secured web site
WinNT SP6

I experience the same problem. I am also on WinNT 4 Sp6a and I am behind a
firewall/proxy. This is definitely a blocker for me. It is realy frustrating me
to continually see the SSL capabilaties of Mozilla broken, especially when
behind a proxy :-(

Actually, since the initial proxy SSL problems were fixed, this is the first
diffculity I've had.
Additional info:
Tested it on my home system, which is not behind a proxy, just a firewall.
Running Win2K, SP1 (Dual PII 350). Grabbed build 2001040520 and installed it,
then tried logging in at http://www.hotmail.com and https://www.springmail.com
with success.
Then turned on Internet Junkbuster Proxy on my PC, and configured both Mozilla
and IE 5.5 to use the Junkbuster. Re-tried https://www.springmail.com, Mozilla
did _not_ crash, but came up with screen that had only this:
<html><body></body></html>
This is also exactly what shows up in Mozilla's "view source" document. IE
rendered it fine. Also tried logging it at http://www.hotmail.com, but could
not due to unrelated problems with Junkbuster dealing with Hotmail's SLL/cookie
setup and redirect.
So, to reproduce:
1) Go to https://www.springmail.com in Mozilla, outside of a proxy, and see if
it comes up (be careful you do not go to http://www.springmail.com -- they look
very much alike)
2) Get behind a proxy, or simply go and and install a copy of a proxy
(Junkbusters can be found at http://www.junkbusters.com/ )
3) Configure Mozilla to use the proxy
4) Go to https://www.springmail.com
You should get a screen with just the HTML tags showing, as above.
Hope this helps!

a browser crash. (ATM I'm running build 2001041200)

Since there is no longer a crash, marking this a dupe of bug 75865.
