Hi,

the situation:

I was browsing somewhere in the first tab. A second tab was open. Then I 
opend a third tab to go to a new site. URL was typed in by hand.

The log file of site from the third tab shows then this:

04/02/2005 19:43:03  | xxx.xxx.xx.xxx | Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD 
i386; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20050224 Firefox/1.0 | some directory | 
http://www.someurl.tld/somedirectory/go.shtml?read=1&msg_id=7728027&forum_id=69086 
| 200 | 3872532 | GET

The referer was the URL shown in the first tab.

I found this

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=249809

but I think it is not related.

This could be linked to it:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=258185
