Works for me on Winnt4.0 sp6, i can go back to last page even if i read two
articles. I can cycle back and forth to homepage and through the viewed articles.

Reporter: 
Can you try it again with a new build (your build is 1 month old).
This should be fixed now.

this bug should have been resolved 'WFM' that's why we have that resolution. 
Without a specific fix to point to (this bug was never even confirmed) one 
cannot truthfully contend it was 'fixed' - much less verify a 'fix'.
Marking VERIFIED Fixed anyway because it's not worth reopening simply to close 
it properly.
