 > Unfortuantly this isn't just a HTTPS Everywhere issue. For example if I
 disable HTTPS Everywhere I still have to go to https://pay.reddit.com/ to
 see that I am actually logged in as soon as I go back to
 http://www.reddit.com/ it shows me the login and password dialog again as
 if I haven't logged in at all. This is all with HTTPS Everywhere disabled.

 Reddit uses a https login embedded in a http page. Only the login appears
 to be ssl and the rest of the page is plain http.

 Okay, interesting. Does it work with a vanilla Firefox ESR 24?
