91847 - Mozilla froze after entry of passphrase

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[jbn]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010628
BuildID:    2001062815

(Sorry if this should be under a different component....)
Applet loads allowing the entry of a login passphrase.  (This is slow but seems
to work.)  Then, after keying-in the passphrase and pressing 'enter,' Mozilla
freezes.  

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Obtain a Hushmail.com account.  (Better borrow someone's MSIE5.5 to do that....)
2.  Close out, then go back in through Mozilla.
3.  Try to login.

Actual Results:  See 'description,' above.

Expected Results:  I'm not a programmer.  I don't know technically what should
be happening under the hood.  On the screen, Mozilla should be allowing access
to the subscriber's mailbox.  THere should be a screen with an in-box and
typical web-based mail options.

However, it does not freeze, using JDK1.3.1,Monday's TRUNK on WINNT.

I did write an email to HashMail.com technical support for information, did not 
get response.

It does look like a user error.
