303843 - This applet makes Firefox crash

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 298221

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Peter Kay]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

When I go the the URL http://www.computerwiz777.com/ and move my mouse over the
choices on the left, I see lots of pretty eye-candy.  Unfortunately, if I play
with them enough, Firefox crashes!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Go to http://www.computerwiz777.com/
2.  Move mouse over the pretty eye-candy applet on the left.
3.  Repeat step two in various configurations - wave the mouse around, etc.
4.  Watch all your tabs go away as Firefox crahes :-(

Actual Results:  
I shed a bitter tear, restarted Firefox, and saw it happen again.  Then I came
here :)

Expected Results:  
Firefox should not have crashed!

If you would like one of the automatic reports, I can provide one for you.  I'll
add the module in which the software crashes after I file the bug report ;-)

Here's the info MS said about the crash:

AppName: firefox.exe	 AppVer: 1.0.6.0	 ModName: ntdll.dll
ModVer: 5.1.2600.2180	 Offset: 00011e58

Like I said, if you need, I can do a Talkback (or whatever it's called) report -
this is extremely easy for me to reproduce!

we can't do anything w/ the signature you have, you'll need to use talkback.

Please can you use the instructions at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Talkback to
install the talkback client, then when firefox crashes send the incident and
copy the incident ID from /components/talkback.exe in the firefox directory to
this bug.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050808
Firefox/1.0+ ID:2005080801

No crash here, but after a while the menu did not react anymore.

Crashes on my work computer as well:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv: 1.7.10) Gecko/20050716
Firefox/1.0.6

It may be the version of Java installed?  I have 1.5.0_02 here, and on a machine
with 1.4.0... it worked fine.
