321232 - Firefox crashes always when entering to the Bank of Finland website's Exchange Rates section

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 210931

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Aki Sivula]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051217 Debian/1.5.dfsg-2 Firefox/1.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051217 Debian/1.5.dfsg-2 Firefox/1.5

This problem occurs always when I try to surf to the specified website.
I take Firefox to the Bank of Finland website, there I selected Exchange Rates section which looks like a very usual website in Opera (also when checking the source code). The URL for the website is: "http://www.bof.fi/fin/0_new/0.1_valuuttak/". Firefox crashes _always_ when I try to enter to this website.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Firefox 1.5 or 1.0.7 (or 1.0.6?)
2.Surf to this website (Bank of Finland Exchange rates): http://www.bof.fi/fin/0_new/0.1_valuuttak/
3.Your Firefox should crash almost immediately if you're having the same problem. 
Actual Results:  
Firefox crashed.

Expected Results:  
It should have opened the website where I tried to enter.

As I already stated, with another browser the webpage works just fine. I want to give more details about my system: 
I have debian (unstable) as my linux distro with the 2.6.14.3 kernel and also grsecurity installed. I am using WindowMaker and X.org (but the crash also happened when I was using Xfree86) and this problem has occured with 1.5 version "1.5.dfsg-2 Firefox/1.5" of Firefox but also with the 1.0.x series - as far as I know at least in 1.0.6 and 1.0.7 versions Firefox crashed same way when trying to go to the specified website. 

Firefox leaves me this info about the crash to the console:
"The program 'firefox-bin' received an X Window System error.
 This probably reflects a bug in the program.
 The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
 (Details: serial 10274 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0)
 (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
  that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
  To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
  option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
  backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)"

Firefox theme doesn't seem to affect to this bug. Also if I disable any add-ons the bug still remains.

I did not get a crash on Firefox 1.5 for Windows.  Must be Linux specific
