Issue with Authentication and Firefox 3.6

Published in CensorNet Professional on January 26, 2010 by Administrator

Its been brought to our attention by one of our customers (thanks Eric!) that the latest release of Firefox includes a known bug relating to windows Authentication. If you are using Firefox 3.6 and you persistently get a login box appearing, you've been affected by this bug. As the problem's in the browser, there is nothing we can do to fix this. The only option is to downgrade to Firefox 3.5 until Mozilla fix the issue. For those who want more detail, please read: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=533467 UPDATE: It appears this issue has been flagged as major and is currently being worked on by Mozilla, so we expect a fix soon.
