259171 - File refers to "Navigator"

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 188557

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Henrik Lynggaard Hansen]

In mozilla\toolkit\locales\en-US\chrome\global\downloadProgess.properties the
entry "BadPluginMessage" refers to "Navigator"

Full sentence is "The plugin performed an illegal operation.You are strongly
advised to restart Navigator"

this is one of those files that is shared between Seamonkey and aviary.

Maybe "your browser" is the appropriate wording?

I hope it's OK for me to note here that in my Firefox 0.9.2 - "Mozilla/5.0
(Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040707 Firefox/0.8" - when I
go to http://www.bigideafun.com/penguins/arcade/spaced_penguin/default.htm which
incorporates an item of type application/x-director, I am told that "Navigator
can retrieve the plug-in for you". I'm afraid I don't know which file this is in.

I am a great fan of Firefox till the Preview Release.. But version 1.0 is just
annoying. The program crashes often. The main reason might be flash plugin. It
always says me this message - "The plugin performed an illegal operation.You are
strongly
advised to restart Navigator"

Not sure if something else is causing this but this happens only when the web
site I am visitng contains flash. I tried uninstalling Firefox and re-installing
and also re-installing Flash 7. But in vain.

Please let me know what I need to do if this is not a bug or let me know if I
need to file a separate bug.

Build: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107
Firefox/1.0 (ax)

[e-mail]: can you find a nice simple flash page that crashes your
flash plugin, save it to your disk (use ie or mozilla/ff w/ plugins disabled)
and reduce it to a minimal webpage that still crashes flash and file a new bug
with that testcase (file it in browser:plugins)? maybe we can get macromedia to
fix the crash...
