The first image I drag to the desktop takes ages, subsequent images go faster but then after 4 or images have been dragged the browser will stop working and vista will close it. Last one that did it was a png but not sure if the format matters.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  open this page in msie
2.

Can you also reproduce this in safe-mode / with a new profile?

I haven't been able to reproduce this bug since reporting it. I tried first with a new profile and then went back to the old profile.

I've got a similar problem under XP. I don't have any performance issues (i only tested small images). Sometimes when dragging an images to the desktop ff just crashes and its reproducable. The format was gif although i dont think that matters does it?
