The page http://documents.wolfram.com/framesv4/frames.html causes mozilla to
crash if any of the page links are clicked.  This is because of the horribly
written JavaScript in the href="" part of the A tag.  However, no matter how bad
the code is, JavaScript should _never_ cause Mozilla to crash.  This JavaScript
suprisingly works with current versions of Netscape and IE.  It's not necessaryt
to make the JavaScript work, just to make it so it doesn't crash Mozilla.
If I click on a link on that page, I observe that mozilla freezes. This is
described in bug 37463 (javascript link causes deadlock). Marking dup.
If you observe some other crash, please reopen this bug or add a comment here.
