Description

[Petey]

When I try to visit Wikipedia's home page, Firbird freezes up. There was a
similar problem a while ago in Camio (bug 174063). I should mention that when
Firbird freezes I hear my hard drive working overtime. Strange things afoot, says I!

I am using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6)
Gecko/20040114 Firebird/0.7+, and I am still having trouble. To be more specific:
1. The favicon loads in the location bar
2. The title loads in the top of the browser window
3. The rest of the page does not load ans FB freezes (I've waited 6 min. before
terminating)

What is your OS, KL?

Should I remind you to try a fresh profile?
