missing "Steps to Reproduce". bug report is useless -> invalid

reporter, please specify the steps needed to reproduce the hang.
and maybe also your video/graphic card

Comment 3

[Ketil Thorsen]

Steps to reproduce:

1. I close the browser window
2. The process uses 99% CPU after that
3. I have to kill the process to stop the slowdown of the computer.

This happens very seldom, so it is of minor irritation.

I have a NVIDIA GeForce4 MX-420 graphics card with 64 MB of RAM. A HP Pavilion
752.no with Win XP Home Edition SP1 with all updates from Microsoft and HP.

Can't reproduce, and the build of the reporter is pretty old now (9 months).
Marking this bug as WFM.
