Details

This is a weird one. Loading some pages from mozilla.org causes my computer to
reboot by itself.

Steps to reproduce:
1) load apprunner
2) QA -> Bug Writing

Result:
- system reboots

(I wonder if this is something related specifically to my system. It is peculiar
to that QA menu item. Apprunner loads the page for a long time, displays
nothing, my screen goes black and the computer reboots.

I had a similar problem with Messenger last night but couldnt reproduce it -
loading content for preview window (I suspect) caused computer to reboot).

Windows 95 SR2a

(sorry if you get multiple of these, having difficulty contacting server)

This bug desription is truly ironic, but I can't make it happen ...
It appears to have gone away now.

I kept meaning to test it since I reported it, but have always been relatively
reluctant to reboot in such a fashion ;)

I remember early builds of Classic would load pages all over the web just fine,
and crash on Mozilla.org *_*
