Details

On abcnews.com, right-click on any of the Headline links in that blue panel on the left.
"Business," say. Mozilla hangs. It seems to be getting lost in nsContainerFrame::GetFrameForPoint.
It's not exactly getting caught in an infinite loop or recursion; it seems to be building the task
up into something ever more recursive that takes longer and longer to calculate each time. Anyway,
the app goes dead. Happens in both mozilla/apprunner and viewer.

My apologies for not distilling abcnews' html into something simpler that can be added to this bug
report for reproducibility's sake, but this has been happening for a few days. Hopefully abcnews
won't change anything before we've had time to look at this.

I have no idea how right pop-up menus work so re-assigning  to Tom because it
sounds event related
