When loading in a new tab (even from a new installation), or even just going
directly to that address, the browser freezes in such a way that I click
anywhere, and all it does is beep at me.  I have to end the process to go back
to normal.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Copy address.
2.  Paste into address bar.
3.  Press 'Enter'

Actual Results:  
Browser freezes.

Expected Results:  
Gone to the page, yes?

No themes, no special config.

But they have an untrusted SSL cert which I have to press OK to accept.

If the bug reporter is using an installer build, he could be hitting the current
problem with untrusted certs in bug 242275.

URL also works for me, 20040503 PC/WinXP zip build.

Bug reporter IS using an intaller build.  Sorry for the hassle, I didn't know
the site had anything to do with untrusted certs, 'cause I couldn't view it ;) 
Just tryin' to help.
