Using Google to research a school report with "poseidon" (no quotes obviously)
as the only keyword. The second page of results has a link to this Wikipedia
page. Every time I click on the link the browser crashes and does not bring up
the quality feedback agent.

I'm using Firefox 1.0 and haven't seen this problem on any other pages.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to Google, type in Poseidon
2.On the second page of results, find the Wikipedia link (should be 2nd from the
top)
3. click on it

Actual Results:  
I get the following error:

This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.

If the problem persists, contact the program vendor.

Could you try and reproduce this with Firefox 1.0.2, or even better, a nightly
build?

Just tried the site on Firefox 1.0.2 on Windows XP Pro (was using a school
computer with Firefox 1.0 and Windows 98). It works fine.
