I can not re-produce on XP so it can be just with 2000 or another program.  Can
you try to close the pop-ups before they load. If you can not close them before
they load just e-mail me at [e-mail] and I will send you a file to try.

sanala : Why should he close popups ? A crash is a crash and you comment doesn't
help. Which version build do you use ?

you comment should be "wfm with winxp and build blah"

Reporter:
Please provide a talkback ID from that crash.

I was able to get a crash using
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212,
by accessing the URL and then  accessing the 'Suggestions'
link at the top of the page.

However, the crash was not reproducible -- it crashed the first time through,
but not on four subsequent tries. .....

Sorry, no talkback ....

Every part is viatal.  I an using the same build as he is this is my
build/useragent:

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3a)
Gecko/20021212
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3a)
Gecko/20021212

The reason I said to close the popups is so that we can isolate where the
problem is. It could be bad script by the advertising company, bad script by the
web-admin, or bad script inside of mozilla. I am just trying to narrow down the
possibilities.  

Now that the fact that is crashed only the first time and not subsiqueent times
makes it seem to be a script error inside of one of the popups (pro the page is
unchanged).
