If a web page displays some text in the statusbar this text remains unchanged
when switching between tabs.  If more pages use this feature, the titles are
switching so fast, that nothing can be read. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.open www.cracks.am in a tab
2.open another tab and a different web page in it
3. switch between tabs

Actual Results:  
the text 'Welcome to CRACKS.AM software security site!' is allways displayed in
statusbar

Expected Results:  
if a web page doesn't display any text in the previosly mentioned way the
default text 'Done' should be displayed.

The page www.cracks.am uses the following javascript:
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript"><!--
var bartext='Welcome to CRACKS.AM software security site!';
function display()
{
window.status=bartext;
tmp=setTimeout("display()",10);
}
//--></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript"><!--
display();
//--></SCRIPT>
