Resummarizing to "Crash when loading redirect links." The browser is crashing on redirects. Here is an example, http://home.netscape.com/bookmark/4_06/altavista.html

This isn't HTTP redirects. The redirect that is crashing it is from the HTTP_EQUIV. any ideas what might have busted that?
text from my email: redirect crasher: The "redirect" is done via http-equiv META refresh tags in the html. This has worked for a long time. This stuff uses timers to fire off to the "redirected" url after X milliseconds ('0' for immediate (this case)). I suspect some docshell changes trashed the assumptions that were made when http-equiv META refresh's were implemented. Basically, when the timer goes off the WebShell starts a new load (start looking here http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/webshell/src/nsWebShell.cpp#3244). Maybe the old webshell/docshell isn't being cleaned up properly (though the model has probably changed dramatically).? I'm assigning this one to Travis. Jud
