I was attempting to remove all the stuff Flash 6 stored on my computer and
telling it never to store any again. I used the online Flash Player Settings
Manager at macromedia.com. If you remove everything and click "Never" everywhere
it will crash Mozilla in NPSWF32.DLL.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure you have Flash 6 installed
2. Go to http://www.macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/help/settings/
3. Click "Reset Privacy", then Confirm, then "Delete all sites", then Confirm.
4. Check the "Never" checkboxes at top right and bottom right of Flash movie.

Actual Results:  
Crash in NPSWF32.DLL.

Expected Results:  
No crash.

Tested using Flash version 6.0r47.

Also try just doing "Delete all sites" and then checking the "Never" checkbox at
bottom right: the window that appears shows the text "Decreasing the amount
below - deletes all information that *null* has stored on your computer.

This very probably can't be fixed in Mozilla but only in Flash and thus should
block bug 139820.

Serge, could you confirm the crash? If so, we should mark this new or resolve it
as invalid...
hmm, i did not crash using Gecko/20020823 Netscape/7.0 & Flash 6.0 r47 on w2k
Confirming this on Windows 98, build 2002-08-30
TBID: TB10131460X
I say confirm for now, since the crash is repeatable. If it's definitely not
fixable in Mozilla, then resolve invalid later.
