404796 - Empty alert pops up at first startup on first run

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Jeremy Glassenberg]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.9) Gecko/20071025 Firefox/2.0.0.9
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9b1) Gecko/2007110904 Firefox/3.0b1

After the initial installation of Firefox 3 B1 and starting it forthe first time, I ran into an alert with no content (see attached screenshot).  This came up in front of another alert notifying me that a connection  could not be made.  At the time of installation and startup, I did not have internet access.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Disconnect from the internet
2.Install Firefox 3 beta 1 (note: I already had 2.0.0.9 installed)
3.Open the new browser, with the internet still disconnected
Actual Results:  
An additional empty alert appears on top of the alert notifying a failure to find a domain.

Expected Results:  
Either some content in that empty alert, or no additional alert beyond the "cannot find domain" warning.

Looks similar to Bug 292000.

Does this still happen with Firefox 3.6.6 or later in a fresh profile?

No reply, INCOMPLETE. Please retest with Firefox 3.6.8 or later and a new profile (http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles). If you continue to see this issue with the newest firefox and a new profile, then please comment on this bug.
