296465 - after playing yahoo games, or in general, after using java (I have JRE, the latest version from sun) mozilla behaves strangely

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[goodkisser]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511

what do I mean by strangely:
when typing URL, it will not display page, also auto complete at URL windows
doesn't work
when closing mozilla, mozilla still stays in memory
need to use taskmanager to kill mozilla to resolve the problem

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a yahoo account
2. play a canasta game
3. close the java console
4. try to do any work with mozilla

Actual Results:  
you can't do any work with mozilla, need to kill it first

Expected Results:  
mozilla behaves normal

I also noted that just closing a yahoo game window (or any other java applet for
this metter) causes a slew of problems. Somebody is not cleaning up memory is my
guess

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.
