Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

3.

Actual Results:

SeaMonkey/1.0a

Seems to works for me on Mac OS 10.3.9. Timothy, if you happened to touch/use
the scrollbar while the page was loading, it might be bug 299384. That was fixed
2005-07-02 22:44 PDT. Can you try the most recent nightly and see if the problem
is gone? Note the new location of SeaMonkey (ex-Mozilla suite) nightlies:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/nightly/latest-trunk/
I tried the 20050702 version of Mozilla, AND the seamonkey 1.0a
20050703 version. Both of them will crash when I tried the About
Plug-ins under Tiger 10.4.1.

Crash log of SeaMonkey 1.0a posted.

The reporter is using a version (0.9.0) of the Java Embedding Plugin
that's incompatible with Tiger (Mac OS X 10.4.X).  He needs to upgrade
to the most recent version (0.9.2):

Thanks. Steve,

I change to the new Java plug-in 0.92. (Just drag the two new files into the
Library/Internet_PlugIn to replace the old ones). This problem (crash on "About
Plug-ins") seems fixed. Also, in the past, when I tried to open certain
webpages, the Mozilla crash problem also gone. I'll run more tests.

Just wonder why the nightly Mozilla builds does not include this, or do this
automatically?
As of comment #5, closing as INVALID (not a mozilla bug).
