215886 - Firebird nightly crashes on www.standaard.be

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 213390

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Tim De Pauw]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20030811 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1+

Nightly fails to open Standaard.be, a respected local newspaper's web site.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Attempt to open http://www.standaard.be/
Actual Results:  
The first time I tried, Mozilla stopped refreshing the UI, i.e. the throbber
froze and whatever I entered in the address bar, it would not open the URL.
The second time it just crashed and Talkback was launched.

Expected Results:  
Render the site :-)

It used to work, but I've encountered this behavior before on Standaard.be, with
an older nightly (2 weeks or so) - however, more recent nightlies didn't have
any trouble with it.

I'm reporting it as a Mozilla bug instead of Firebird because I'm guessing
that's where the bug originated.

Probably a duplicate of the win32 flash crasher bugs...

WFM 20030813, but Boris is probably right.

WFM now, but that could be due to different code on the site...
