I see this on today's linux commercial build 2000033109

1. Install and launch the browser
2. Click on the 'What's Related' panel after the default page launches.
3. Observe that the browser freezes and I can no longer click on buttons, menus. 
   Have to restart the browser.

I see the same problem when I try to open a file using 'File->Open File'. The 
dialog never opens and the browser freezes. Pls reassign to correct component if 
wrong..thnx !

Yeah.. I do see it on today's windows build. Marking OS : all, adding pp.

This is likely a dup of 34061.

After updating nsXULElement.cpp, I no longer see the freeze on Linux (nor 
Windows); however, I don't get any related links on Linux. Sunspots? Server-side 
problem? Windows seemed to work...

so it no longer freezes the browser, but there is no content in the "what's 
related"?

if that's the case, we can probably remove this from the smoketest blockers once 
we have confirmation on the respin.

Ugh, now I have to find out why there's no content ...

transmogrify bug

rjc: is there any platform-specific foo going on s.t. Linux won't load related 
links (but Win32 will)? e.g., user-agent munging to get a URL?

Comment 12

[Robert John Churchill]

Nope.

[Paul MacQuiddy]

this seems to be okay now in 404 build, marking fixed and verified, unless 
waterson was seeing something that I am not
