Open a new window.
Load a new page, something that takes a while to load would help.

finishes loading.

I can confirm this using  the 20030615 build running under W2K, but I'm quite
sure, that this is a dupe of an existing bug, though I can't find one. Adding
qawanted keyword.

Confirmed. Having gone through every bug assigned to Firebird, I can
definitively say that there are no dupes for this bug.

I don't know if this is (still) true or not, just mentioning as an FYI...

Perhaps the bug summary should be changed to reflect that the icon signifying
that the tab is loading is also not displayed.

Can this still be reproduced with a recent build? Works fine for me using 1.0.2
release on Windows.

Confirming appears FIXED on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US;
rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2

How odd.
