Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[webmaster]

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

When using my SMF powered forum of http://forum.warhammerforum.com Firefox
crashes every single time, 12 so far, when attempt to attach a file to a post. 
Attaching occurs by clicking the attach button and a window opens like windows
explorer/my computer that allows me to browse to where the file is located.  It
is just like using My Computer but the window opens via Firefox.

Whenever I get to the point of opening that window Firefox immediately crashes.
 Numerous talkback reports have been automatically generated and submitted.  I
am running Windows XP Pro with Service Pack 2.  I am using Firefox 1.0 PR.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to http://forum.warhammerforum.com
2.Either modify a post using the modify button or when creating a new post click
Additional Options
3. Click the Browse button
4. The window I described above, akin to using windows explorer/my computer, opens
5) Firefox immediately crashes.

Actual Results:  
As I said in step 5 Firefox immediately crashes.

Expected Results:  
Firefox should not have crashed and instead should have allowed me to browse to
the file I wanted so I could upload it to my posts.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
