Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I go to www.usatoday.com, and when I go into a link within the site, it goes past to the site, and gives a blank page. I then have to hit the back arrow on the browser to get the page that I originally wanted.
 This happens with other sites, as well.

Source Package: Mozilla Firefox 3 Beta 5
Ubuntu Release: 8.04 LTS

What I expected: it should just have gone to the link/site and I would read the article.
What happened; Firefox went to the link/site, then it went past it to a blank page, and I had to use the back arrow on the browser to get back to the requested link/site page.

There was a certain update to the libn* files recently, and it looks as
if it has been corrected. Please list my bug as solved.

Thank you, Miguel for your attention to this bug.

Sincerely,

Jon N.
