[Daniel Amor]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021016
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021016

Since today I could not start up the browser anymore. It started to show the
little window and the started to use 100% cpu time and increased its memory
requirements every few seconds. I created a new profile and then it works again.
It seems that XUL.mfl is the cause, because removing it from the profile makes
it work again without any problems. I will attach my XUL.mfl. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start browser
2. Wait
3. Wait
4. Kill Process
Actual Results:  
Nothing happens, browser does not start up.

Expected Results:  
Browser should start up.

Wanted to attach the XUL file, but it is 1.7 MB large. If required I can send it
by e-mail...

Did you install new version of Mozilla over a previous one?

Comment 3

[Daniel Amor]

No, I was using 1.2b for a few days and suddenly it stopped working.

Please reopen if you see this corruption again

Hi, it happened again. Now the corrupt XUL file is 3 MB large. I deleted it and
Mozilla works again. It seems to happen, if I undock my laptop at work, put it
to sleep, wake it up at home and use WLAN instead of an 10 MBit Ethernet
connection. If Mozilla is open, it freezes. If I kill it and restart it blocks.
Removing the XUL file resolves the issue.

the middle of work?..
