Works for me both in 1.0.6 and 1.0+. Have you tried it in the safe mode (with
disabled extensions)?

Comment 4

[Ying-Lin Xia]

Yes, I did try the Safe Mode, it also happens.
However, it stopped happening yesterday, for one day, and started happening again.
After click Deny button for the bs.serving-sys.com cookies, the page is still
showing, but you can not really do anything. Close the window won't end the
task, Firefox still showing in the task manager.

Unable to reproduce in BonEcho..

Has this bug been reproduced in 1.5? If not, can it then be closed?

Reporter, do you still see this problem with Firefox 2.0? If not, can you please mark the bug WORKSFORME. Thanks!

Resolving this bug as WORSKFORME since this works for me. If you can reproduce using Firefox 2.0.0.4 or later with a clean profile and can provide details, please reopen.
