User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041110 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041110 Firefox/1.0

i was looking on google for something, and this site was one of the first, so i
clicked it, after a few seconds FF stalled, i assumed it lagged, but the RAM and
CPU usage kept going up, eventually crashing FF at 99%cpu, and 250mb RAM.

im not sure what code was used in that site, but it isnt good for ff. :p 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. goto website
2. wait 5 seconds
3. ;) 

Actual Results:  
ff cpu&ram usage build slowly, eventually killing firefox.

Expected Results:  
loaded the page?

im using win32sp2, all latest updates as of 02/march/2005, ff1.0, with english
as default language. no themes for ff, but the following extensions that i dont
think will matter but i'll include anyway;
*forecastfox 0.5.9
*tabbrowser preferences 1.1.1
*image zoom 0.1.7
confirming hang/crash 
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050301

Before testing I disabled Java and Javascript, didn´t help. 
I also tested it with Mozilla 1.4.2, no crash/hang when JS/Java was disabled.
Mostly it was hanging, twice crashing, Talkback didn´t come up, Windows was
crashing. Win98SE, 512MB

wfm Mozilla   1.4.2: 2004042614
crashes Mozilla 1.6: 2004011308
crashes Reporters Firefox 1.0
crashes Mozilla 1.8b2: 2005030105
crashes DOMinspector

I disabled Java, JS, images, popups and it was crashing my Win98SE
I didn´t have flash disabled, and the the files downloaded using 1.4.2 are
containing some flash files. I´ve got Shockwave Flash 7.0 r19
I renamed the plugin folder of Opera, where Flash was installed, and checked
once more, Java, JS, images, popups, prefetch, cookies disabled, about:plugins
was showing the null plugin and Acrobat 5.10 only. No extensions installed.

After crashing windows, I rebooted win98SE, restarted Mozilla, loaded a tabgroup
(appending), then this bug in the first tab, crashed and talkback came up.
Don´t know if it is related to the crashs. The tabgroup was Bugs today,
Tinderbox, checkins.

some html bugs:
<iframe src=http://wmshop.allweb-search.ru/vxod.htm width=0 height=0
marginwidth=0 marginheight=0></iframe>
<td align="right">&copy Copyright
<td alig="left">


now testing on Win98/128MB RAM
working: 1.4.2: 2004042614
crashing: 1.6a: 2003103019   

Local copy saved as webpage, complete did load fine in 1.8b2: 2005030206
Loading the original URL in another tab was increasing CPU usage to 100% of the
slow Celeron 333, and RAM started rising, so I killed Mozilla using Task manager.
I used LiveHTTPHeaders to see what was loaded, and observed a lot of 404s.
Maybe that makes the difference in loading/crashing of a local copy and a page
loaded from net.

I don´t know what to do next, where this bug belongs to.

It regressed between Mozilla 1.4 and 1.6a
It doesn´t crash or hang on a local copy
It doesn´t need Java, JS, plugins or Extensions to crash
Loading from the internet shows a lot of 404s in Extension LiveHTTPheaders.

Does it belong to Networking, as it can be seen only when loading from the net?
to Parser, as there are more than 100 HTML-Errors?
to CSS, as there are three handful of CSS errors, and two handful of warnings.
Is this bug Windows only, or can it be seen on other OS as well?
There are 6 <iframe> in the page, this one seems to be the culprit:
http://ifboards.ru/vxod.htm

view-source:http://ifboards.ru/vxod.htm is showing three iframes:
http://dvdselect.ru.ru/vxod.htm
http://all-inet.com/top2.htm                         <--- recursion
http://ifboards.chat.ru/vxod.htm

The second calls the parent:
view-source:http://all-inet.com/top2.htm
http://dvdselect.ru/films/vxod.htm
http://ifboards.ru/vxod.htm                          <--- recursion
http://ifboards.chat.ru/vxod.htm
http://wmshop.allweb-search.ru/vxod.htm
http://softbazar.ru/sscript.php


changing summary accordingly:
was: when going to this website with FF1.0 it slowly increases both RAM and CPU
now: recursion in <iframe>s hangs or crashes Mozilla Suite & Firefox

regression: 
Mozilla 1.4.2 is working fine, 1.6a and later is crashing or hanging
Keywords: regression
