438910 - Add-on Manager freezes when I click on one of my extensions

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 437890

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

Description

[Drew Nagy-Kato]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052906 Firefox/3.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052906 Firefox/3.0

The Add-ons manager window seems to freeze or hang when I try to activate one of my extensions (not a specific extension; has occurred when trying to activate different add-ons). The window becomes completely locked, not allowing me to move, minimize, maximize, or close it. I cannot change the active tab from extensions to any of the other three (themes, plugins, or "get add-ons").

I've tried to reproduce this several times, but it only does this every so often. I've tested this on OS X, but so far I have been unable to reproduce this bug. I have not tested this on Vista.

The only way I can see to close the window is by force quitting the entirety of Firefox through the task manager.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
This bug only seems to happen if I try to open my add-on manager within the first minute or two after opening Firefox, and only if I click on an extension first. This bug does not seem to occur if either the themes, plugins, or "get add-ons" tabs are activated before switching back to extensions and attempting to open the preferences of an extension.
Actual Results:  
Add-on Manager window freezes.

Expected Results:  
Specific extension's preferences window to open

Yes, this does seem to be a duplicate. My mistake.
