You can use URL bar, but I've also verified it w/ a link in HTML w/ checkloaduri off. STEPS: access file:c:\ OBSERVED BEHAVIOR: file URL will cause browser to hang, requiring a End Task via control-alt-delete. EXPECTED BEHAVIOR: nothing, or an error about bad file URL (which it is)
Is this the same problem as mentioned in bug 47125?
It seems to be solved in the last builds (Mozilla 1.1 or 1.2 ?) : see bug 47125 comment 13 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 47125 ***

This needs to be fixed before checkloaduri can be made to behave less stringently. I've commented in bug 193255.
WFM Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7a) Gecko/20040219 Mark this bug as WORKSFORME. Perhaps it is fixed by antoher bug? Feel free to reopen if it occurs again.
