I have Seamonkey V 2.48 running on 64-bit Windows 10 (v 1703). I just

A certain internal corporate web page I use no longer works, but only
when accessed from Seamonkey 2.48 on this system.  On other browsers,
and from an absolutely clean v2.48 installation on a "virgin" Windows 10
(v 1703), everything works as before.

I think you've run into this bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1347857
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1350152

The work-around, as you've found out, is restarting SM.
It seems it is something in the mail part that breaks
HTTP auth.

Regards.

That could be it, although I personally see no connection to mail.

As a test, I repeated the scenario I reported with my home system, which has an entirely separate profile and always has.

I opened the same web site with 2.46, authenticated, and got in.

I then upgraded to 2.48, and got the same weird error message when I tried to connect.

I then restarted 2.48 in safe mode, accessed the web site (with remembered authentication in this case, no attempt to clear anything), and got in.

Then I restarted 2.48 normally, and access to this web site worked OK.

Bob
