User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050217
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050217

The following HTML page will cause a crash:

<html>
<body>
<p>
<font color="#900001">&#2219;</font>
</p>
</body>
</html>

The important part, I think is: & #2219; (Remove the space between & and #; I
don't want your browser to hang). ;-)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. See the details above.

Actual Results:  
Browser became unresponsive.

Expected Results:  
Displayed a bullet character in the browser window.
Can you try a more recent build? The one you tried from is from Feb 17
(according to your UA).
worksforme with linux suite trunk 2005090105 and 1.8b

can you grab a recent build and do:

% kill -SIGSEGV _pid_

(_pid_ is the pid of the hung process) while it's hung and submit a talkback report.
