is wrong, the buildID is 2005071805

I had more than 20 tabs open, some in the overflow, getting visible one by one
if a tab was deleted. I noticed I couldn´t delete a tab, and some tabs to the
right of it. I minimized and maximized the browser, to no avail. When I reloaded
that tab, the tab to the LEFT was showing the spinning wheel.

JS console gave an error:
Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code:
0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIWebProgress.removeProgressListener]" 
nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame ::
chrome://global/content/bindings/tabbrowser.xml :: removeTab :: line 987"  data: no]

Steps to reproduce: didn't succeed using the original URLs.
The non-deletable tabs were loaded from a google search, they belonged to
renowned newspapers and trade magazines.
maybe some other tabs were created by dragging textlinks to the tabbar.

Closing bug, as I didn't see it again.
