298139 - crash using 802.11g wireless adapters with Win 98

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 298073

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[ronh]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

I recently tried to use two different 802.11g adapters with Firefox (USB and
PCMCIA, D-Link and Corega brands). Both work fine with IE and Outlook. But
Firefox crashes on startup, resulting in the blue screen: "A fatal exception has
occurred at 0000:0000001B. The current application will be terminated." etc.

Here's the rest of the system specs: IBM Thinkpad 1452i, Windows 98SE, D-Link
DI-514 wireless hub, D-Link DWL-G122 USB wireless adapter, Corega WLCB54GL
CardBus adapter (PCMCIA).

I posted this problem to a Mozillazine support forum and received no answers.
However, someone else seems to have the same problem and posted it in the thread
I started. Here's the thread: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=240499
