The mangled URLs have plagued Mozilla for a while, but they are caused by proxies, like Junkbuster, that do not support HTTP1.1 and its associated attributes. The suggested solutions are to switch Mozilla to HTTP1.0, or to use a proxy that works properly.
Post #27,909 by Another Scott 2/9/02 10:59:35 AM Reply	Yup. That's probably it. After removing 0.9.8 I did recall reading about proxy issues. I was using Junkbuster (it's at least a couple of years old) and I don't recall whether I ever turned it off. Probably not. The latest version of Junkbuster (2.0.2) [link\|http://www.junkbuster.com/ijbman.html\|doesn't mention] HTTP 1.1, so I assume it's still at 1.0. 0.9.8 on this Mac (OS 8.6) works very well and I don't have a proxy here. I'll try 0.9.8 again on my PC next week. Thanks. :-) Cheers, Scott.
Post #27,914 by scoenye 2/9/02 11:13:15 AM Reply	Junkbuster Junkbuster 2.0 definitely does not support HTTP1.1, and there are some comments in the Mozilla bug databae that indicate it plays fast and loose with HTTP requests under any circumstance. It appears Junkbuster has halted development of the proxy, with its website actually recommending a commercial product these days. A group at [link\|http://sourceforge.net/projects/ijbswa/\|Sourceforge] has taken up the slack and is working on the 3.0 version. I've been running the 2.9 alpha version since Mozilla 0.9.7 and I haven't had a single horked URL since.

Now, I've upgraded and so far have not seen any problems. I don't use Junkbuster. Alex "Of course, you realize this means war." -B.
