294865 - Firefox crashes immediately when clicking "back" button after viewing an image file ONLY

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 294630

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Rudy]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050519 Firefox/1.0+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050519 Firefox/1.0+


The link above is the first place I noticed the behavior, but it happens after
loading ANY image. Happened with yesterday's and today's nightly build.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to any website that has links which go to just the image file itself (I
have only tried to this with .jpg's, and having just thought of it, don't care
to find out if it will crash again on .png's, .gif's, or the like, given that
I'll lose what I've typed here.)
2. Click the "back" button.
3. Firefox crashes; Windows crash reporting and talkback agent appear.
4. Upon reload, firefox sometimes opens three windows -- two with the page
you've requested (or the default page), an one that is only the title bar and
nothing else, located in the top left corner of the screen. very strange.

Actual Results:  
Crashes every time.

Expected Results:  
Display the previous page in the browser history.
