Description

[Dirk Pietschner]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050919 Firefox/1.0.7

downloading more then 100 games in ca. 15 miniutes in this section and you will see that the memory usage in more then 90% and the downloadmanager gives up the normal working, it hangs and strike. in the windowtitle are the Letters 'No Redirection' (äh keine Rückmeldung)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.goin to the website www.romcentral.com/genesis.htm
2.downloading with a fast internetconnection more then 100 games (on the desktop or how ever u want, but in 15 to 20 Minutes)
3.don't be angry that the happens its true. . .




And I can't say thats was a problem of the site www.romcentral.com/genesis.htm it works fine with the IE more then 200 downloads no problem. I think it's a memory unusage problem, no connection to file stored in memory numbersection XXX == true then unload fast, or so what.

After canceling the process more then 3 times inside the Taskmanager the fox run away. No report inside, no helpful information in the firefox tempfiles, sorry 4 that.

I hope I can help U 4 sometimes

Did upgrading to Firefox 1.5 fix the problem?

Clearing the downloads list from the privacy section of the browser will fix this in the short term.
