Description

[Adam]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win95; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win95; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6

If i am loading pages, and something stops the data, firefox will no longer load
any webpages, for example, when a network cable is unplugged and plugged in,
firefox becomes useless, and must be shut down (and CTRL-ALT-DEL end tasked) and
restarted to function again.
This is also caused by a website that loads (ie pictures) from another website,
if the second site doesn't send the data, firefox will no longer load any website

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Use firefox
2.Unplug network cable, and plug back in
3.Firefox will no longer laod pages, even though other browsers wil lfunction
perfectly

Actual Results:  
Firefox will not load web pages without restarting firefox

Expected Results:  
Firefox should load web pages normally

Firefox works normally on Windows 95 4.00.950, but works incorrectly on 4.00.950C
