Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: Shell Integration, defect)

Description

[Roi Gilboa]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

It happens sometimes, when the browser loads, it does not load my home page
(even when I used several different homepages), and consumes about 25% CPU
(Single processor, no HyperThreading).
It happens only when the system uses high resolution - 1280x1024, and does not
reproduce on 1024x768.
I use Windows XP, SP2, but I was using the same configuration with the lower
resolution, and experienced no problem for months.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Change the resolution to 1280x1024
2. start and close the browser several times.
3.

Actual Results:  
Browser takes 25%CPU and does not reponse to toolbar/menu actions. It does close
when clocking the X button.
