From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0rc1)

BuildID:    2002041711

when using the Download Manager to "Remove from List" >5 (<5 hasn't been tested)
"histories": upon clicking "Remove," Mozilla (all of it, every window, etc.)
hangs/freezes and must be killed-off to continue functioning. (ie restart the
program)

Repititions: 5+


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.open "Download Manager"
2.select all (ctrl-A or shift-click, both behave in the same way)
3.click "Remove from List"
4.the window (and the rest of mozilla) should now be halted.

Actual Results:  Mozilla freezes, requiring that it be "end task"-ed by the user.
upon restart, the program is funtional but if attempted again, same results
(freezing).

Expected Results:  all selected "histories" should've been removed and the
browser should function (@ all) after the "remove" button is clicked.

occured using both 'Classic' and 'Modern' Themes.
does not occur if only ONE (1) history is selected and removed @ a time. (only
with multiple selections)
