275612 - Crash Importing IE files

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: Migration, defect)

Description

[Mark Trump]

Not sure if this is important, but while importing IE bookmarks, history,
etc...  it locked up. The problem is that Microsoft propted to send an error
report to them that Firefox.exe messed up. I don't know what info they could get
from that error report, but I rather them not know.

If Firefox could send an error message to you guys and block microsoft's error
report window, I think it would be more beneficial.

Well, it can, but it's only enabled 20% of the time on default installations.
Don't suppose you want to be a crashtest dummy, and reinstall Firefox? If you
choose "custom installation" you can choose to install Talkbalk, and then it
will come up when you crash and let you send us all sorts of good stuff.

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

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.
