User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030529
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030529

The home page of www.boxxtech.com crashed Mozilla before rendering anything -- I
just get a blank page for a couple of seconds, the Mozilla "unexpectedly quits".

Using Safari, the page comes up without any problems, starting with a Flash
animation (which is perhaps what's causing the crash).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to www.boxxtech.com
2. Crash
3. Die

Actual Results:  
Browser goes belly up.

Expected Results:  
Browser should have quietly rendered the web page.

what Flash plug-in version do you use ?
Does it happen after upgrading to latest version available ?
could be dupe of bug 200511.
If it still crashes, can you attach a OS X crashlog ?
Do you have a Talkback ID from that crash ?

WFM using a current trunk build from CVS on Linux with Flash 6.0 r69.

I'm still getting the crash after downloading build 2003052905.
My Flash plug-in is 6.0 r47 -- I see someone else here tested with a later
version of 6.0 r79.

Do new versions of Flash come with each version of Mozilla, or do I have to
track them down and install them myself to make sure I'm up-to-date?

I went to macromedia.com and download the lastest version of the Flash player.
Now that I'm using 6.0 r79, the crash problem has gone away.

I guess I've been expecting Mozilla to install the lastest plug-ins at the time
of it's release itself.
