I hit a page with a WMP played via the plug-in.  For whatever reason, it
couldn't be played and a "Bad File Format" warning dialogue appeared.  When I
tried to click the "OK" button to dismiss it, the box persisted and I had to
Force Quit and reboot the app to continue using Moz.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to play WMP via plug-in.
2. Dialogue box appears.
3. OK button cannot be clicked.
4. Browser freezes.

Actual Results:  
Browser freezed up.

Expected Results:  
Click on OK button should have dismissed warning dialogue and I should have been
able to backpage and continue using the browser.

Reporter: can you reproduce the bug with a very recent build? similar
mac-events-code issues have been fixed lately.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
