Description Crispin Flowerday (not receiving bugmail) 2007-09-07 11:45:05 UTC 
I have ephy running, with no extensions active (or ever active since I started it), and I have ephy reloading a page every few seconds even though the tab has been closed.

To reproduce:

1) Run epiphany
2) Load "http://www.sportinglife.com/racing/pop/settlers.auto?/opt/ASFapache/htdocs/site/racing/results/settlers.insdat"
3) Create a new tab
4) Close the tab with the horse racing results on it

Now run a tcpdump - every 5-10 seconds you will see an HTTP request being made for the sportinglife site

Actually, it seems that it is an extension - the 'Page Info' extension causes this problem

Actually, it is all the python problems, so bug 455964
