141066 - Click, then cancel a link in mail crashes browser.

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Richard Neill]

If I have a mail message containing a link, and I right click and choose "Open
in new window", this is normally fine. But, if I suddenly change my mind, and
immediately close that (new) window (via the X in top right) *before* it has
finished loading, the browser will crash. This is repeatable (and painful!)

Thanks

Richard

> reporter, have you ever experienced this again ?

Yes, I experienced it several times (until I learned not to click the stop
button!) at the time I reported it. (It would have been the most recent release
at that time, but not a nightly). 

However, trying to replicate it now, in every possible way, using 1.1 beta, it
works fine. So, I think this is an ex-bug :-)

[Great browser, btw - thanks for all the work you people do!]

Richard, in the future please mark it INVALID, or more correctly, WORKSFORME.

We reserve FIXED for a notable fix from development.

But thanks for reporting back and using Bugzilla!

Verified.
