When trying to use "build your own" (linked from  feature on Nissan's website,
the page freezes while loading. After freeze, no other pages in any browser
(safari or mozilla) can be viewed because of "can not connect to server
message." The only way to reconnect to the net and pages is by restarting the
computer. I am using Mac OSX 10.3.7 The page loads correctly with Mozilla. I
believe the page is flash.

Reproducible: Always

See Bug 244987 "Mac Firefox hangs on this Flash site".

So far as I can tell, there are (at least) two sorts of swfs: Those that
sometimes crash/freeze and those that don't.

Sometimes it takes more than one swf on the same page to cause trouble.

It is exceedingly difficult to tell which reports are dups.

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.
