Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 169777

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Brice]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

I've been using the browser for about a month.  One day, clicking Edit-Find On
This Page just simply freezes the browser and it does not repaint the window and
stops operating.  The first time I can recall having this problem was when doing
a  Find in the View Source window.  I used the View Page Source numerous times
before and did Finds without incident.

Now all Finds (Find on this page|Find Again|Find Previous) crash the browser 100
percent of the time.  I do not get an opportunity to type what I search for
(there is no dialog box, it crashes immediately ... the dialog box never appears).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  I click Edit - Find On This Page and it immediately crashes everytime
2.  I do not know what happened to cause this to occur, it didn't always happen.
3.

Actual Results:  
Browser immediately stops working.  All browser windows/tab cease operating
immediately.

Expected Results:  
The find dialog box should have appeared.

I receive no error message.

Look in your profile directory and find a file named XUL.mfl. Rename that file
to XUL.mfl.BAK and restart the browser.
