151424 - Browser takes 100% utilization

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

Description

[Brent Shifley]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; Q312461; .NET 
CLR 1.0.3705)
BuildID:    2002053012

Shortly after installing a new skin on the browser ( sorry, I do not remember 
the name of the skin, however it is a BLUE skin ) I was playing around cutting 
and pasting Url's into the browser, then the system seemed to freeze.  Further 
inspection showed me that the CPU was running in the high 90%+ range.  I killed 
the browser through task manager, and then started it again.

The brower immediately went to 90%+ again, on your home page.

I fully uninstalled Mozilla 1.0.  Re-installed.  The browser still had the blue 
skin on it, and was still killing my CPU.  I uninstalled again, this time I 
even went and removed all registry entries the Mozilla 1.0 had ever been on the 
system.  I also ensured that the install directory was gone.  Re-installed, 
again blue skin and a CPU that is at 90%+

Please delete all files in Profile/Chrome (you will loose all additional

See the release notes for the profile location (it's in the OS user directory)
