Re: Password protecting a webpage causes NS to show loading

Post by John Connor »

Well, it's been four months and this issue still persists. I have to always keep ABE off due to this issue and that lowers my security. I almost thought I messed up my phpBB driven forum when I went to update it and had ABE on. Luckily I was able to close the browser, restart the browser, disable ABE and go back to my website and it continued to update where I left off. I really did not want to have to upload a backup.

Anyway, any status on a fix for this specific issue?

Someone posted this related thread: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=22003
Specifically, this post looks interesting.

off-topic: Firefox gives its version (and Gecko revision) as <majorversion>.0 in the user-agent string for some time now.

Code: Select all

*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!
