Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 192294

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Juro Olejnik]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20030210

Mozilla (Browser, Mail all open windows) stops responding when ending a dial-up
connection after a short while. Seem to occur when Mail and Browser are opened
together, don't seem to stop responding every time, but I have tested it on two
computers. It seems to appear only with Mozilla 1.3b, downgrade to 1.3a seems to
avoid it.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Browser + Mail
2. Surf the web
3. Anytime disconnect the dial-up connection from system tray.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla (all open windows) stopped responding after cca. 1 or 2 seconds. I was
unable to switch to Mozilla, I needed to kill it. No data loss from the last
session occured (history, etc.), neither no signs of abnormal stop occured when
I have re-started Mozilla. It seems to appear only with Mozilla 1.3b, downgrade
to 1.3a seems to avoid it.

Expected Results:  
Just stay available for off-line browsing...

It seems to appear only with Mozilla 1.3b, downgrade to 1.3a seems to avoid it.

Please read the release notes for Mozilla before logging a bug.

Mozilla 1.3b has known freezing issues on Windows 9x.
