went to a online banking website. from that site clicked on a link that brings
you to the bank's secure site. when clicked mozilla crashes giving you the
traditional microsoft blue screen of death.
found out that if i disable kb891711.exe from startup using windows msconfig,
then mozilla does not crash. kb891711 is a windows critical security update
that has been recently updated.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Leave kb891711.exe running at computer startup
2.start mozilla, goto online banking site
3.click on secure site link, and mozilla crashes
Actual Results:
windows crash
microsoft blue screen of death
a fatal exception at 06 0000:000081D2

Yep, but it isn't crash of Firefox, it is crash of Windows. The reason of crash
is Windows itself.
Read this article on TechWeb:

It's not Mozilla's fault. Please read bug 285382 comment 9 and reinstall the
update. Marking invalid.
