User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; InfoPath.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.30)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6

When I attempt to navigate to our company's bizhub printer (something I do rather frequently) at http://bizhub/ it seems to be loading for a very long time...  I hit stop and the data I expect to see appears.  The load monitor at the bottom of the page continues to progress as if it's still loading.  During this time, I can't open another tab or do much of anything.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open browser
2.Select a bookmark
3.No URL appears in the navigation bar, the page loads forever...
Actual Results:  
Hitting the stop button, does stop the page loading (at least it looks like it), but the progress bar continues to show that it is not done.

Expected Results:  
Can't really browse anywhere... Problem just seems to get worse and worse.  I have rebooted my system twice.

Please try in Safe Mode to exclude extension problems (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode)

Does that page contains some embedded object (java or flash or video)?

What version of java are you using (see in about:plugins)?

Could you try to upgrade your java to current version? (1.6.0 update 2 at this moment)

reporter said already has latest java version. 

Feels like a problem with java plugin but it's difficult to tell without having a tescase... moving to plugins
