From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows NT; DigExt) BuildID: 2000042708 The above page needs to use the flash plugin. When you go to the page the flash animation is displayed correctly but when you click on any link on the page the browser hangs. This did not happen with M15 and before !! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Copy the flash plugin dll - npswf32.dll to the plugins directory under mozilla/dist/win32_o.obj/bin/plugings 2.Point your browser to the above location - www.cyberworldcorp.com-or any other page that uses flash 3. Click on the icon or any other link on the page Actual Results: Browser freezes- When I start the Task Manager it says that Mozilla is not responding Expected Results: The browser should open the link in the window I first observed this when I embedded Gecko in my application. All callbacks are received fine infact I even get OnDownloadComplete but it hangs after that. When I do a debug break the Visual C++ debugger tells me that there is a potential deadlock and it was soft broken.
Confirmed on build 2000051520 on NT4.

This bug is not related to flash plugin. The plugin plays fine even when isolated from the page. This is a javascript issue where left clicking on link is freezing the browser. Note that right clicking is working fine on that url. Reassigning bug to DOM 0.
