Confirmed on Linux build 2000.03.05.09.   Crash is caused by JS redirect using
 
	location="/error/oldbrowser.html"

while the page is loading.  The line should not be executed; the page doesn't
sniff the browser correctly.  I'll sned them a standards feedback.

Here's a stack trace:

Hmmm...works for me on Windows. Could be Linux only? Testing...

Comment 3

[Sitsofe Wheeler]

I see this on windows too - 030516 WinNT 4 SP6. I get a crash and a Dr Watson.

Comment 4

[Johnny Stenback (:jst)]

I'm unable to reproduce this with todays mozilla, tested on both WinNT and
Linux.

Marking as WORKSFORME, please go ahead and reopen if this is still crashing
for someone.

Comment 5

[Prashant Desale]

I'm not seeing this crash either. Marking verified.
