[Bug 209984] [NEW] Security manager password requested multiple times

[Nick Barcet]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mozilla-firefox

My firefox startup page opens multiple tabs to various site that requires authentication and therefore needs access to the security manager.
Using firefox 2 (on gutsy), the security manager password request is brought once the first time access is needed and once my password is validated all the sites gets accessed fine.
Using firefox 3 (on hardy), the security manager password request is brought up as many times as I have tabs that requires access to the security manager (the windows pile up), and I need to enter my password in each of them or else I get a 404 access error on the site.

This problem cannot be reproduced on firefox 3 beta 4 on a macintosh.
