Description Carolyn MacLeod

Go to the Bugzilla search page: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/query.cgi
Set up the following search:
  Classification: Eclipse
  Product: Platform
  Component: SWT
  A Comment: [contains all of the words/strings]: focus gain
Click Search.
Think, "Hmmm... 272 bugs... that's too many... better refine the search."
Click the browser's "Back" button. (I'm using IE 6.0)

Notice that the Classification and search text fields are correctly populated, but the Product and Component fields are bogus.
If you don't notice this, you might type some refining text in the search text field and click search and get "Zarro Boogs" found.

This is a Bugzilla bug which only affects MSIE:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=282368

I tried this on Firefox, and the behaviour is as expected.

Closing as NOT_ECLIPSE.  Not much we can do, and Mozilla is aware of the issue.
