102217 - News link causes all links to break

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Networking, defect)

Description

[Luke Reeves]

I was reading a page at http://www.mozilla.org/ and there was a link to
news://news.mozilla.org:119/[e-mail] - I clicked the link,
and after waiting about 15 seconds I clicked stop.  After this, none of the
links on the page (including the one I clicked) worked.  I had to stop Mozilla
and restart.  Build ID is 2001092803.

I added the correct URL now; unfortunately I can't reproduce this error.

Dupe of bug 24435, or bug 70213?

Marking these all WORKSFORME sorry about lack of response but were very
overloaded here. Only reopen the bug if you can reproduce with the following steps:

1) Download the latest nightly (or 0.9.6 which should be out RSN)
2) Create a new profile
3) test the bug again

If it still occurs go ahead and reopen the bug. Again sorry about no response
were quite overloaded here and understaffed.
