Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run a program that hooks WH_KEYBOARD, (mine is written in delphi) 2. Attempt to enter any text into Mozilla 3. Attempt to enter any text into the operating system or any other program Actual Results: Step 2 fails, and step 3 allows text entry as it should. Expected Results: Allowed text entry If you need the example application which causes mozilla to fail, contact me.
Would it be possible to place the example app as an attachment? (sorry, just a Bugzilla n00b)
