353084 - url does not clear from status bar

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 327604

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[Big J]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060909 Firefox/1.5.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060909 Firefox/1.5.0.7

When closing a tab, most of the time the url of the closed tab remains in the status bar of firefox. This usually happens if anything is done in the tab before it fully loads. 



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open new tab
2. Go to any site that takes time to load (yahoo.com)
3. Quickly close the tab before the page is done loading
4. Look at status bar!

Actual Results:  
A url (either the page viewd or an embeded component) remains in the status bar upon closing said page (tab)

Expected Results:  
The status bar should clear, it's very annoying and a privacy risk. Mostly annoying though... I have to open a new google tab to clear it (I leave my browser running when the computer is idle)

Just installed beta 2, and this doesn't seem to be an issue anymore. 

I guess it's fixed!

Sorry, was too quick to judge... It's still there, just not all sites..

I think this is basically a dupe of Bug 327604.
I can't reproduce the problem at fable.lionhead.com when loading in a new tab which is what this bug is about.
