179682 - Surfing for a few clicks results in Mozilla not responding, statusbar remains "Stopped" or "Done"

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 179679

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Mike Neman]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021111
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021111

Moz works fine for the first 4~15 clicks, mostly it stops responding after 5~10
clicks on the website.
1) Just stick to Active topics --> blablabla-topic --> active topics -->
foobar-topic --> repeat.
The "Active topics" link is called "Actieve onderwerpen" in Dutch and is always
at the top of the pages.

2) All of a sudden you'll notice it won't load any more pages and the statusbar
will report "Stopped". The tab will say "Loading" with circular arrows turning
forever.

Go to another tab/webpage, statusbar will change to "Done", switch back to the
motor-forum.nl tab, statusbar will sometimes stick to "Done"
You can still load any other website in the same "stoned" tab if you wish and
surf on for hours.

The base URL www.motor-forum.nl/ _seems_ fine, click on that and you'll go to
the list of different forums.
_Sometimes_ after quitting Moz 2 or 3 threads will remain and you don't get your
prompt back. I need to 'ps aux' and 'kill -9' it.
_Many_ times when quitting Moz the Netscape QA Feedback Talkback app will pop up
and ask if you want to fill in a report and send it in. I've sent like 5 on this
bug yesterday alone with another build (20021106 i think).

I thought of sending this to Tech Evangelism but it's weird that at first Moz
handles the page beautifully.
It feels like every time the page loads it pumps **** into Mozilla somewhere and
Moz eventually chokes on it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Actual Results:  
After a few clicks you can't browse any further.

Expected Results:  
It should allow the user to browse normally.
