Sorry, note: http://hispeed.rogers.yahoo.com is only accessible to Rogers
Hi-Speed Internet customers in Canada. The second web site, http://www.canoe.ca,
is open to everyone.

Sorry - canoe.ca doesn't seem to trigger it right now. The other web site still
triggers the crash though. There have been a few other crashes from various web
sites in js3250.dll, but I can't remember any of them off the top of my head,
and the crashes are intermittent.

That meant "Could you send another Talkback incident report and post its ID
here? Thanks".

I think I have the same bug. Now when I press Back button or choose Back in
context menu, I get Application Error:
---------------------------
firefox.exe - Application Error
---------------------------
The instruction at "0x00710c92" referenced memory at "0xc012de40". The memory
could not be "read".


Click on OK to terminate the program
Click on CANCEL to debug the program
---------------------------
OK   Cancel   
---------------------------

It is reproduced on EVERY site for me since today. I don't know what to do now.

Things I do before it were:
1. Go to MSN site and download MSN messenger 7 beta.
2. Install MSN messenger 7 beta.
3. Deinstall MSN messenger 7 beta and install 6.2 again.
4. Get this error in Firefox for every site.

Maybe beta software from msn update some system library?

Sorry, today this bug suddenly disappears. Its reason remains unknown for me.
Yesterday I had crashes in my Firefox 1.0 (Windows 2000 Server) while pressing
Back button or selecting Back popup menu item for all sites. And, yes, there was
js3250.dll in degug stack trace.
