When I try to reach this bookmarked URL in SeaMonkey,
http://www.kitco.com/market/ , I get the following instantaneous message:
"Redirect Loop
Redirection limit for this URL exceeded. Unable to load the requested
page. This may be caused by cookies that are blocked.
The browser has stopped trying to retrieve the requested item. The site
is redirecting the request in a way that will never complete.
Have you disabled or blocked cookies required by this site?
NOTE: If accepting the site’s cookies does not resolve the problem, it
is likely a server configuration issue and not your computer."
The SM URL box displays http://www.kitco.com instead of
kitco.com/market. That's the home page of the site, and from there the
page I want is just one click in. Starting in safe mode makes no difference.
Note that cookies are accepted normally.
In Firefox, Pale Moon and IE, http://www.kitco.com/market/ is accessed
normally, so I'm wondering if this is a problem with SeaMonkey (2.46),
and if there is a fix for it.
First of all thanks for these replies, which are obviously well thought
out and took some time and effort to compose.
I did manage to fix this situation. I wound up not using either of your
suggestions, but it is a fair statement that without them I would still
be in the starting gate. I checked out SiteSecurityServiceState.txt and
there is no mention of Kitco in it. I also checked out how the site
cookies were handled in Preferences/Privacy and Security/Cookies, and
nothing in the detailed entries was restricted.
While they didn't make mention of it, judging by the improved
performance I'm quite certain Kitco has been tweaking the site over the
past week, even though the layout seems unchanged and the pages I use
appear to look the same. My thought was that perhaps I was preserving
cookies (using C-Cleaner) that were now actually impeding site
navigation. That indeed turned out to be the case. I deleted the single
Kitco.com cookie in C-Cleaner, which I assume includes all Kitco.com
sub-cookies, and then closed SeaMonkey and reopened. Now everything
works as it should.
It's a mystery to me why Pale Moon never exhibited this problem, since I
use it to access Kitco just as often as SeaMonkey, but I can live with it.
