48502 - status bar % indicator goes way off

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 44126

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Bernhard van Staveren]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16 i686; en-US; m17) Gecko/20000807
BuildID:    200008-712

The indicator in the status bar that shows how far a page has loaded
occasionally displays things like 987% and the like. This seems to happen mostly
on pages that pull a lot of their content off other sites, but seems to happen
frequently. One of the sites where I witnessed this problem was
http://adult.mynetpond.com/

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1) Load a page
2) Watch status bar - if it displays normally, reload or
   go to another page and hit the back button.

Actual Results:  Status bar percentage indicator went way off (987%)

Expected Results:  Stick to 100% ;)

After some digging I found out that most pages where this happens contain a few
nested tables or pull images from other hosts.
