Description

[dustin]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11

firefox crashes when popup window loads. any other process happening at the time stop, fails. any window or any popup i've seen will cause this to occur on my build. 2.0.0.11

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.browse to webpage
2.launch popup
3.kill process, firefox froze
Actual Results:  
froze, not responding

Expected Results:  
i should be able to open up any popup and this only started happening on firefox update. 

Someone might want to upgrade the status of this bug if they've seen it before. It might just be my build or what I'm not sure...I mean, I don't think it's platform related to system.

Have you tried:

- Firefox's safe-mode to exclude extension/theme problems
- a new profile
- a reinstall in a new empty folder?
