User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

Copying the text of a hyperlink will cause the browser to lockup when the "Find
in This Page" function is activated. Please note that I mean the text that is
the visual part of the link, and NOT the URL that the link goes to. ie: if the
link were [a href="http://www.foo.com/"]A link[/a] then "A link" would be the
text I am trying to copy, not http://www.foo.com/.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Page in browser that contains a hyperlink.
2. Highlight and copy the *text* of that link (**NOT** Copy Link Location)
3. Press Crtl-F (or select "Find in This Page" from Edit menu).

Actual Results:  
Browser locks up

Expected Results:  
Open "Find in This Page" dialogue window.

Turns out to have been some config issue instead. Guess that'll teach me to
report a bug before I try a re-install. ;)
