Note that this issue would not affect Thunderbird or Seamonkey as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, or 5 as DNS prefetching was not implemented in the versions of Thunderbird or Seamonkey provided (no nsHTMLDNSPrefetch.cpp, for instance). DNS prefetching was implemented in xulrunner 1.9.1 as per https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=453403). |
